Mellors brings out the ugliness and tenderness of a bunch of broken characters to form an intimate and emotional story about how love is complicated yet what holds us all together. I really enjoyed all of it, as if I was just watching a year in the life of a group of friends and lovers unfold patiently and unexpectedly before my eyes.
