Additional InformationAward-winning actress Emily Watson (BREAKING THE WAVES) stars in this true story detailing a scandal that rocked Britain's childcare services. The directorial debut of Jim Loach, son of acclaimed filmmaker Ken Loach (KES) and written by Rona Munro (LADYBIRD, LADYBIRD), the film follows the trials and tribulations of Margret Humphreys (Watson), a Nottingham-based social worker who uncovered one of the biggest social scandals in Britain's recent history: the deportation to Australia of children living in care. Through dogged determination and against overwhelming odds, Margret pressed forward on an almost single-handed crusade which would see thousands of families reunited and the wrong-doers brought to justice. ORANGES AND SUNSHINE is an extraordinary film and a mesmerizing portrait of a remarkable woman.
