A Brixton Tale

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.

Total and utter trash.

Camera work was hilarious, I'm not sure if there was a scriptwriter, acting was not acting.

Best way to have fun watching this is by playing idiot bingo, write down 40 words - phrases or slang terms that you've heard from the great uneducated, and Mark them off during this dross film. I won after 5 minutes with "bruv fam yegetme innit blud brapbrap yafeelme Mandem feds trippin pussyole feel-ya"

Seriously do not bother.

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.

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.

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.
