From the supplier: Mike Leigh's film 'Secrets and Lies' is best examined through utopian considerations. All the film's characters inhabit the tensions between utopia and the state most regard as "reality." Physical spaces in the film limit the production of a desired place and motivate movement toward it. Psychological and physical spaces substitute for utopia by becoming populated with objects from the past and simulations of happiness.
