My Policeman
Let it take hold of you.
Directed by Michael Grandage
Produced by Amazon Studios, Berlanti Productions
A melancholic, intimate exploration of a forbidden love affair and its long-buried consequences, told across decades through the lens of regret and unresolved longing.
In the late 1990s, the arrival of elderly invalid Patrick into Marion and Tom’s home triggers the exploration of seismic events from 40 years previous: the passionate relationship between Tom and Patrick at a time when homosexuality was illegal.
