Over the course of a year, filmmaker Charlotte Ginsborg filmed the London housing co-operative that she lives in, looking to chart the residents’ diverse experiences of the pandemic, across the daily life of numerous national lockdowns. Some experienced the illness itself, while others faced the stress of work on the front line. Each Saturday, the residents came together to sing with each other from their communal balconies and walkways, and these songs permeate throughout the film. Increasingly frustrated by the government, residents experienced an emotional rollercoaster that is reflected in a film wherein the personal and political interweave, to create an intimate and moving portrait of a unique community during an extraordinary time.

Tedfoldol everything you have heard about this movie is true.
ChicDragon It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.
Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
