Set in South London, 1966. Three sons who work in the family construction business help their overbearing mother celebrate her anniversary to her late husband.
Despite the fact that Dad is dead, (his dying words, we’re told, being ‘now at last I’ll get some bloody peace!’) the family still gather to celebrate the anniversary of their parent’s wedding.
The question is why? The answer is so that Mum can continue to exert the relentless and obnoxious grip that she has over her sons; binding them to her with gifts, threats and the ruthless exploitation of their weaknesses. She maintains control by any means at her disposal; but not with love, oh no, there is no love in this particular family!
