Set in a world before Elvis, a Liverpool before the Beatles, it is a remarkable evocation of working-class family life in the 40s and 50s - a visionary exploration of memory. It is an autobiographical picture of a family dominated by an oppressive patriarch. The women in the family achieve partial escape from his dominance through the popular songs of the period.
