The first tells what has led up to a young garage-hand 'borrowing' his employer's car, and its disastrous consequences. In the second a betrayed wife loses her memory after an accident, and finds herself on a barge with an old reprobate. The third is about the tribulations of a canteen manager with an inscrutable boss and an extravagant wife. Whether they live in slum tenement or suburban semi-detached, these ordinary people are seen through an imagination to which nothing is ordinary.Hide synopsis
