Overview

After his critically acclaimed departure to period drama with Topsy-Turvy, Mike Leigh returns to the more intimate explorations of working-class life that marked his early career with All or Nothing. Set in a London housing project over one long weekend, Leigh’s masterful and moving new film tells the story of Penny and Phil—a long-estranged couple brought together again after their son becomes suddenly and violently ill. An unflinching look at the often harsh realities of London’s down-and-out, All or Nothing is also Mike Leigh’s most nuanced and heartfelt film to date.
