David Hemmings directs this 1970s British drama following the struggle faced by 14 brothers and sisters to keep their family together after the death of their mother. When a single mother (June Brown) passes away she leaves her children orphaned and in great danger of being separated as various homes are sought for them. Can Reg (Jack Wild), Sylvia (Liz Edmiston) and the rest of their siblings do the impossible and find a way to keep the vast family united?
In this sad British drama, a family of 14 children is suddenly orphaned and must now consider how to keep themselves from being separated by the authorities. They launch a brave campaign in the face of nosy social workers who want to place them in assorted reform schools and foster homes. Eventually the eldest brother and sister realize that they must split up for the benefit of the younger children.
