Directed by Jim Loach, Oranges and Sunshine tells the real-life story of Margaret Humphreys (Emily Watson), a social worker from Nottingham, who uncovered one of the most significa nt social scandals in recent times: the organised deportation of children in care from the United Kingdom to Australia. Almost single-handedly, against overwhelming odds and with little regard for her own well-being, Margaret reunited thousands of families, brought authorities to account and worldwide attention to an extraordinary miscarriage of justice.Director(s): Jim LoachCast: Richard Dillane, Emily Watson, Hugo Weaving, David WenhamCertification: 15+Run Time: 1h 44minCinema Date: 01/04/2011 Distributor: Icon Film Show more
