This is an important film. It contains all the reasons for abandoning Brexit. Told with clarity and passion by individuals in all the devastated areas of Britain, it should be seen on television. As it is so comprehensive, it is possibly too long, but it is, nonetheless, full of wonderful material for any shorter docs or news magazine programmes to use - over and again. It should be made available to them and to all viewers, especially when the next referendum comes up.
Postcards from the 48% serves as an excellent summary of what has happened since the EU referendum: so much has happened since June 2016 and it's good to be reminded. The film informs our fellow citizens in the other 27 European Union countries that a sizeable number of us did not want to leave, and still do not want to leave the EU. However, where we do go from here?
As another reviewer says this isn't the most fun you'll have at the cinema, but that isn't the point.
David Wilkinson spent months on the road speaking with various remain voters and hearing their concerns. Some of them add limited value (and I guess are probably there for name recognition), but others really know what they're talking about. I learned a lot.
I was lucky enough to attend a session with a Q&A with the director afterwards. If you have a chance go to those do so, they are fascinating, though I cannot really review the film based upon that.
I would heartily recommend seeing this film as it widens the ongoing debate on one hand and (because it was filmed over a period of time) shows the evolution of the debate. My one criticism is it could have charted the shifting positions better.
The final dedication is moving.

Those in the UK who voted to remain in the European Union, and those who wish they'd been permitted to, need a voice. Postcards from the 48% is a moving account of those who love Britain and who are working in small ways and in more public ways to continue to be part of team Europe. Recommended viewing for all.
Postcards from the 48% is a shocking indictment of how democracy can be undermined by those seeking to destroy democracy for their own personal gain by lies, fraud and interference. This film should be mandatory viewing by all our fellow EU citizens to show them that a sizeable proportion of the population, predominantly the young and better educated, did not want to leave the EU and still do not want to leave the EU. This number is growing larger day by day, and is now the majority according to the most recent, reliable polls. But both the U.K. government and the official Opposition Party, are ignoring us. They refuse to reconsider and are denying us a second vote now that the facts are coming to light. This is NOT democracy
