Stars: Chaneil Kular, Lauryn Ajufo, Robbie O’Neil, Nila Aalia, Nitin Ganatra, Frances Tomelty, Ollie Teague | Written by Barnaby Boulton, James Cummings | Directed by Phil Barantini
Director Phil Barantini has become one of my go-to directors in terms of pure quality homegrown filmmaking. From my introduction to his work with Craig Fairbrass driven feature Villian, the short movie Seconds Out and the outrageously brilliant Stephen Graham powerhouse one shot, Boiling Point, I’m beginning to get the feeling we can group this man with some of our favourite British directors.
Whether we are spending time with an ageing con fresh out of prison, an alcoholic head chef on the busiest night of the year or Tim from The Office working the streets of Liverpool, we are sucked into these worlds because the stories are real, the performances are raw and a lot of the time they feel like they are happening right outside your front door.
