Synopsis: John May (Eddie Marsan) is a council worker charged with finding the family and friends of those who have died alone. When his department is downsized, John must up his efforts on his final case, taking him on a liberating journey in which he discovers life.
Review: The plot of the movie is great and the actor, Eddie Marsan also. But the directing is too slow, too empty to maintain the curiosity of the plot. The humour of the movie is completely in the plot, there are not many black humour scenes, pictures nor dialogues, actually almost none. And this is a pity because the plot could have allowed so many freedom in this kind of humour. Strangely enough, the movie is presented since Mid 2013 in festivals but will be released only in December 2014.
