Shot over the course of five years in order to accurately reflect the passage of time from the perspective of a prison inmate, Michael Winterbottom's Everyday tells the story Ian, of a convicted drug-smuggler who attempts to maintain a healthy relationship with his wife Karen as she raises their four children while awaiting her husband's release. As that date draws near, day passes afford Ian the opportunity to spend time walking through the park or enjoying a quiet meal with his family. Meanwhile, both the convict and his overburdened wife wrestle with the stress of seeing their family fragmented while facing an uncertain future.
