Ken Loach's mid-career classic follows a poor, working class man devoted to buying his daughter a beautiful but expensive communion dress.

Drama 1993 91 mins

Director: Ken Loach

Overview

Drawing on the traditions of Italian neorealism, Ken Loach presents a poignant story of personal sacrifice, as Bob (Coronation Street’s Bruce Jones) seeks out the funds to buy his daughter a costly communion dress. The result is a raw and emotionally affecting film drawn with typical beauty and simplicity by Britain's master of social realism.
