Based on the filmmaker’s collection of British newspaper cuttings, Everyday Something features interlocking private moments that give glimpses into everyday life.

“A sad but often funny compendium of true-life stories drawn from her own stash of press cuttings… there’s no disguising Morley’s feel for the desperation and quiet madness of daily life.” – Sukhdev Sandhu, The Telegraph
