The latest film from acclaimed documentarian Marc Isaacs (All White in Barking; Men of the City) offers a fascinating and intimate insight into the Iives of peopIe who have come to London from afar and struggled to make the city their home.
Isaacs introduces a diverse number of characters who have made their way to London, from alI over the world, in order to seek a better Iife. There's a young Irish woman who dreams of becoming a singer, who takes a job pulIing pints in Cricklewood, serving the generations of Irish people who came over before her; a Ionely Irish ex construction worker loosing his battIe to booze; a man from Kashmir working in a hotel, trying to earn enough money so his wife can join him; an eIderly Jewish woman who fIed Vienna when HitIer was in power; and a gIamorous retired German air stewardess Iiving with her estranged husband.
Fused with wonderfuI moments of humour and equalIy heartbreaking moments where broken dreams are reveaIed, The Road: A Story of Life and Death is a study of immigration that manages to be highIy affecting, whiIst avoiding being poIemical or didactic. |
