Tender Loving Care

As the demands of work and family begin to converge, two best-friend social workers and those closest to them discover the strength found in compassion, community, and one another. Set in post-Brexit England, Mike Leigh’s Tender Loving Care is a richly observed portrait of resilience, humor, and the enduring power of human connection. “As great as anything he’s ever produced,” The Daily Beast proclaims of the feature that might be Leigh’s last, “a small-scale domestic drama that reverberates loudly, and urgently, as a celebration of everyday compassion and solidarity.”
