A Brixton Tale

Tv his film is utter rubbish. The camera work is like a 10 year old with a phone the story line is very anti white/police and the film is extremely short.....don't waste your time with junk.

Great performances all around, especially from the lead actor! For a first feature film, the quality of images is stunning : the story could have been somewhat tighter (the film felt a little bit short) but it is nonetheless a project showing a lot of potential from the people involved in it.

The performances is second rate the cinematography is garbage wow waste.

Do your self a favor and spend your time with something joyful, a book watching grass grass grow, watch paint dry, try ordeing chinese food from a old greek hippie, shave a cat, anything but this... life is short.

If you like watching ordinary people do ordinary things for two hours, this is the film for you. Or you could just go sit at a coffee shop and stare at the tables. The effect will be the same. This movie maker might have a future if he pays attention to his mistakes, but he's not there yet. You can't make a good movie out of a bad script.

Leah (Lily Newmark) uses her camera to film her everyday life. She falls for Benji (Ola Orebiyi). He's a poor black boy. His white friend Archie is sliding into drug troubles. Leah uses footage of Benji's street life into a film exhibition. The young couple starts pushing the boundaries into more troubling footage.

This indie is a first full length film for directors Darragh Carey and Bertrand Desrochers. I say full length in the most loose way. It's barely 75 minutes. The plot is thin. It doesn't have enough meat on the bone. What it does have is three pretty interesting performers. Lily Newmark is the most experienced and is suited to play quiet intensity looking for trouble. The guys have an interesting chemistry. The script just needs more to exceed its indie limitations.
