Mike Leigh’s latest film, ‘Tender Loving Care,’ receives its first trailer, featuring Kate O’Flynn as Amy. The story centers on a character in social care who is dealing with personal grief and the emotional fallout of loss, as Amy navigates relationships and changing circumstances.
Both outlets describe the film as intimate and character-driven, with O’Flynn playing a social-care worker in London. Deadline adds that Amy moves in with her best friend Rosie after a bitter breakup, and that Amy and Rosie work in London in social care. IndieWire emphasizes Leigh’s continued collaboration with repeat actors and frames the film as “packed with losses,” while Deadline frames it more broadly as a meditation on love and growing old. Both portray the trailer as setting up themes of care, attachment, and aging through the lens of social work and personal relationships.
