Set immediately after the 2005 London bomb attacks, Elizabeth Sommers (the always wonderful Brenda Blethyn) leaves her farm on Guernsey, travelling to London to make sure that her daughter, who is studying in the capital, is safe. Also in London is Ousmane (the great Malian actor Sotigui Kouyaté), looking to reconcile things with his estranged son. Elizabeth and Ousmane move in different directions, but after the same information, so it can’t be long before they meet eachother.
Director Rachid Bouchareb (director of Days Of Glory) has made a powerful, sparse and engaging drama, which never falls upon racial clichés to make its point.
