ritish filmmaker Steve McQueen's wartime drama is set across a single day in September 1940, amid World War Two, when Britain's cities were being relentlessly bombed. It tells the story of a young boy, George, who is reluctantly evacuated from London and sent to live in the countryside by his mother after a frightening incident in the city. Despite her desire for him to be safe, George refuses to obey the orders he's been given and sets off on an adventure to find his way back home. As well as being an awe-inspiring recreation of a bygone era, this fresh perspective on Britain's communities adapting to wartime life also offers greater representation of society and its attitudes compared to previous films on the subject.
