Seven-time Oscar-nominee Mike Leigh returns with Tender Loving Care, an uplifting story of family that the legendary writer/director says will be his final film.

The film follows a week in the life of Amy (Kate O’Flynn, Widow’s Bay), a dedicated social worker who gives everything she has to support those in need. Amy’s personal life is upended when her beloved father begins facing serious health issues, forcing her and her mother to accept a painful new reality.

Amy shares laughter, tears, and vital perspective with her lifelong best friend Rosie (Alice Bailey Johnson), whom she has recently moved back in with. Rosie’s wit and warmth serve as an essential anchor for both women as they navigate the uncertain waters of approaching middle age.

O’Flynn and Bailey Johnson deliver compellingly authentic performances in this poignant, uplifting celebration of resilience and compassion from one of the great masters of film. Don’t miss this opportunity to see Mike Leigh’s swan song on the big screen.
