MUBI's take

Charlotte Rampling and Tom Courtenay both won Silver Bears for their extraordinary, understated performances in this acclaimed marital drama from Andrew Haigh. The atmospheric Norfolk Broads are a potent backdrop to this devastating portrait of a once-solid marriage plunged into crisis.
