Hard Truths is Mike Leigh’s return to the modern world, a fierce, compassionate, and often darkly humorous study of family and the thorny bonds that bind us. The film stars Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Michele Austin. This sweeping film from the master playwright takes us into the intensity of kinship, duty, and one of the most enduring human mysteries: that even through suffering and hardship, we always find ways to love those we call family.
