Overview:	Tanya (Dina Korzun), a vulnerable and naive young Russian, arrives at Gatwick airport with her 10 year old son Artiom (Artiom Strelnikov) to meet her English fiancee. But when he fails to show up, a distraught Tanya claims political asylum and finds herself virtually imprisoned in a nightmarish refugee holding centre in a lonely seaside resort. Desperate to escape, Tanya forges an unlikely alliance with amusement arcade manager Alfie (Paddy Considine), which soon develops into something more. But is he just another man who will let her down, or will Tanya and Artiom finally break free? Pawel Pawlikowski's critically acclaimed, award winning film is an affecting and poetic love story, featuring hauntingly beautiful photography and sensitive naturalistic performances from an excellent cast.
