After Love (2020)

UK, English

Housewife Mary Hussain is a practicing Muslim. She converted as a young woman, when she married her Pakistani sweetheart. Set in the port town of Dover, Mary suddenly finds herself a widow following the unexpected death of her husband. A day after the burial, she discovers he has a secret just twenty-one miles across the English Channel in Calais. It is the story of two women looking at each other, first to see what makes them different, then to see what connects them. After Love understands what it means to be an odd fish. There’s something about Mary. There really is. This film is a miraculous study of grief, jealousy and ultimately compassion.
