Storyline
A young British woman suffering from depression over the loss of her husband develops an unusual relationship with her chauffeur.
Thoughtful study of the British class system told from the perspective of one who essentially occupies its bowels, a chauffeur interacting with his employer forming a bond that threatens to transcend social boundaries. Unfortunately, his vulnerabilities mutate into fondness for a crippled lady of standing whose only capable affections are for a recently returned war veteran.
