Synopsis
The Remains of the Day
A rule-bound head butler's world of manners and decorum in the household he maintains is tested by the arrival of a housekeeper who falls in love with him in post-WWI Britain. The possibility of romance and his master's cultivation of ties with the Nazi cause challenge his carefully maintained veneer of servitude.
Wonderful Nightmare
It follows a high-flying, career-driven lawyer who dies prematurely due to a clerical error in heaven.
