In a career-defining performance, Bill Nighy plays Williams, 1050s London civil servant who struggles to maintain order under mountains of paperwork. Overwhelmed at work and lovely at home, his life takes a heartbreaking turn when a medical diagnosis tells him time is short. Influenced by a local decadent (Tom Burke) and the vibrant Maragret (Aimee Lou Wood), Williams continues to search for meaning until a simple revelation gives him the purpose to create a legacy for the next generation.
