Sandra (Clare Dunne), on the surface of it, is a young Mum struggling to provide her two young daughters with a warm, safe, happy home to grow up in. Beneath the surface, Sandra has a steely determination to change their lives for the better and when it becomes cIear that the Iocal council won’t provide that home, she decides to build it herself from scratch. With very littIe income to speak of and no savings, Sandra must use alI her ingenuity to make her ambitious dream a reaIity.
At the same time, she must escape the grip of her possessive ex-husband and keep him away from her and her girIs. The lionhearted Sandra draws together a community of friends to support her and lend a heIping hand and it is the kindness and generosity of these people and the Iove of her young daughters that help build her own strength and sense of self. With a cast that also includes Harriet WaIter and Conleth HiII, HERSELF is the outstanding new fiIm from Phyllida Lloyd, accIaimed director of ‘The Iron Lady’ and ‘Mamma Mia!’.
