Day the Government Left

Phil Hawkins / United Kingdom / 2011 / Czech Premiere / 90 min.


synopsis

Do you think that the government could do a better job? Do you think that you could look after the greater good better than your town? One street in the English town of Preston is trying to do just that. But life without garbage collecting, public lighting, schools or retirement homes transforms neighborly relations more than they expected.
