Michael Sheen (The Queen, Frost/Nixon) plays Aneurin ‘Nye’ Bevan in a surreal and spectacular journey through the life and legacy of the man who transformed Britain’s welfare state. From campaigning at the coalfield to leading the battle to create the National Health Service, Nye was the politician with greatest influence over the UK without ever being Prime Minister. Confronted with death, Nye’s memories lead him on a mind-bending journey back through his life, from childhood to mining, Parliament and fights with Churchill.
