Pansy is a woman wracked by fear, tormented by physical pain and prone to raging tirades against her husband, son, and anyone who looks her way. Meanwhile, her easy-going younger sister Chantelle, is a single mother with a life as different from Pansy's as their clashing temperaments -- brimming with communal warmth from her salon clients and daughters alike. Legendary filmmaker Mike Leigh returns to the contemporary world after his previous films Peterloo and Mr Turner, with this fierce, compassionate and darkly funny character study, exquisitely performed by award-winning Marianne Jean-Baptiste.
+ U3A introduction on Monday 10 February, 12.10pm.
