Bournville

In the Birmingham suburb of Bournville, a family celebrate VE Day in 1945.

With the joy of such an occasion there also come larger national questions about the nature of the horrific war the country has just been through.

Following this family through generations as they navigate seventy-five years of drastic social change, from wartime nostalgia and English exceptionalism to the World Cup and coronavirus, domestic secrets and national myths leave characters and a country adrift, bewildered and divided.
