Norman
Sylvia, contable en una oficina, vive con su hermana Hilda, que es algo retrasada, y su pasión es la lectura y tomarse unas copas por la noche. Hilda odia a Peter, un profesor de escuela interesado por las hermanas, pero quiere a Norman, un hippie que trabaja en el garaje de Sylvia, imprimiendo un periódico underground. Sólo cuando Norman toca la guitarra, las cosas parecen fluir amablemente. Todo lo demás es sufrimiento, desorden y oscuridad. Primer largometraje de Mike Leigh que versa sobre la soledad y la incomunicación de los seres humanos.
