Film Description

Anna Bouverie (Lindsay Duncan) chafes at her limited life as a vicar's wife in a small English town. When her husband is passed over for a promotion and her daughter is bullied at school, Anna gets a job at a supermarket in another town - a small act of independence that sets off gossip, domestic fights and worse. And when Anna meets another man who seems to understand her frustrations, she is soon tempted into an affair.

Also featuring Prunella Scales and Pam Ferris, this is a rich and dramatic portrait of a woman trapped by the way the world sees her, and her struggle to find some kind of freedom.
