The Long Song (2018 Mahalia Belo)

Yes, director of the incredible Ellen. And with the same DP Chloe Thomson, who pulls off some great (low) lighting - they are a great pair. Arty production isn't sombre, has witty script, chapters, ironic notes.

From 'Small Island' author Andrea Levy's novel, adapted by Sarah Williams.

Tamara Lawrance great in title role. With Hayley Atwell, Doña Croll (old July), Ethan Hazzard, Jack Lowden, Madeleine Mantock, Jo Martin, Joy Richardson, Lenny Henry.

Filmed in the Dominican Republic. Loved the ending - the faces of the labourers, all looking into camera...
