Secrets and Lies
Aroview: Winner of the Palm D'or at Cannes '96, and surprise box-office smash thanks to good old word of mouth.
A dramatic tour-de-force about expectations, acceptance and forgiveness, Mike Leigh's astute human observation and 30-year career culminate in an honest-to-goodness masterpiece focused on the most fascinating thing in the world - people.
