Angleterre, sous Margaret Thatcher. Colin, handicapé mental, et son frère Mark vivent chez leurs parents dans une banlieue grise et pauvre de l’Est londonien. Alors que le chômage touche une large partie de la population, chacun tente de survivre au désœuvrement et à l’ennui. Un jour, Barbara, une tante aisée, propose un emploi à Colin. (LaCinetek)

Mike Leigh had excellent actors at his disposal who handled their roles brilliantly, but I can't help feeling that even though this is quite an interesting study of how it's also possible to live in Britain, the film doesn't seem to really go anywhere, as if it hardly has anything substantial to say. Depressing, yes, but the actors deserve admiration above all.
