Good Luck To You, Leo Grande is a sex-positive tale of empowerment and self-discovery that challenges expectations. From director Sophie Hyde (Animals) and starring Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack.

Nancy Stokes (Emma Thompson), a retired schoolteacher and widow, is yearning for some adventure, some human connection, and some sex. Good sex.

Whilst her husband Robert provided a home, a family, and something resembling a life, good sex was never on offer. But he’s gone now, and Nancy has a plan: she will find adventure with a sex worker named Leo Grande (Daryl McCormack). In an anonymous hotel room Nancy greets Leo. He looks every bit as good as his picture, but what Nancy wasn’t expecting was conversation as well as fornication.

Emma Thompson gives an emotionally generous and intimate performance in this terrific British comedy drama that highlights the importance of human connection and self acceptance.

"A refreshing, intelligent bedroom drama, Good Luck To You, Leo Grande is a quietly hilarious study on emotional and sexual intimacy carried by two powerhouse performances." - Little White Lies
