Here’s a rousing empowerment-anthem of a movie that’s not afraid to paint its romance plotline in big, bold brushstrokes” – Andrew Pulver, Guardian
Chuck Chuck Baby is a feel-good ‘right person, wrong time’ story set in industrial North Wales. Helen (Sherlock’s Louise Brealey) spends her nights packing chickens and her days caring for her dying mother-figure Gwen. After her teenage love, Joanne (an ever-charming Annabel Scholey), makes a surprising return, old sparks ignite and both women are offered a rare second chance at love.
Heartwarming, funny, and full of working-class charm, Chuck Chuck Baby is a celebration of the musicals we imagine in our minds, lesbian joy, and the possibility of finding love later in life.
