Summary:

A wonderful, ultra rare British fantasy. The setting is an old boardinghouse filled with a variety of people, all with different problems. They're lorded over by an evil, mephisto-like slum lord. The tenants' lives are changed forever by the arrival of a Christ-like stranger who aids them with their problems.
