For George is a poignant and gently funny look at three generations of a family as they come together for the funeral of ballroom dancing champion, George.
Seven year old Bobbie is comforted by his own explanation of the great mystery of death - that in fact Great Uncle George has been rescued from the box by Jesus and taken back to Birmingham. But the middle generation struggles to find it's way as grief and betrayal threaten to dissolve the glue that holds the family together.
Bobbie and the older generation, though, know how to celebrate George's life, and with that wonderful affinity that exists between the very young and the elderly, they set about doing exactly what he would have wanted - dancing.
