Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
In this British working-class drama, a worker gets fired for voicing his opinions on labor-saving technology. He is too ashamed to tell his family, and also fears throwing them into a panic until after his daughter is married. Just after the wedding, his daughter's husband suffers a terrible accident, and now the father is terribly depressed until his daughter gives birth to a grandson who gives him a little hope for the future.
