Jean works in a garage and consoles herself with drink and perfunctory sex. Jean's insistent neighbour, Dawn, and Dawn's Irish labourer husband Mick, and Mick's spineless mucker, Len, all join her in a funny, drunken, sad celebration of their mutual affection and bleak lives. Following in the great tradition of his previous success, Abigail's Party , Ecstasy is vintage Mike Leigh; a devastatingly funny, brilliantly astute and compassionate portrait of the English working-class, drowning their sorrows and living their lives by partying as hard as they can.
