Veteran British actor Richard Johnson (The Haunting, Khartoum) gives a beautifully understated, deeply moving performance in this inspirational low-budget British debut feature. Leonard (Johnson) and Maria (Gemma Jones) have spent forty years in a remote Cumbrian cottage but it has now become a prison, crammed with the junk of a lifetime and overrun with mice. Their middle-aged son Daniel (Daniel Cerqueira) arrives from London to take control but Leonard is not about to go gently and as old family habits reassert themselves, the film develops into a poignant portrait of family life, tinged with black comedy and heartbreak.
First-time director Tom Browne and actors Richard Johnson (The Boy In The Striped Pajamas, The Haunting, Julius Caesar, Antony & Cleopatra) & Gemma Jones (Bridget Jones’ Diary, Sense And Sensibility, the Harry Potter films) attend both screenings.
