Homeless Ashes

I was lucky enough to see Homeless Ashes last night at Everyman Baker Street. I can honestly say I am blown away. Blown away by the performances, directing and cinematography. And blown away by how brave, honest and beautiful it was. It shows human nature in its rawest form. And highlights the chain of problematic causes it takes to lead an individual down the 'wrong path'. I truly believe this film will make an impact on how we see homeless people. It should and it will make us see individuals without homes, as human beings, like ourselves. With stories, and families. Marc Zammit clearly is a very talented director and performer, but what makes him unique is that he is in tune with the human heart and has clearly illustrated this in his feature film debut. I am so excited to see what he does next. And what this beautiful film will do for our community.

I was very surprised to hear that this was Marc's first film ever made including a short! The film touches on important topics in society and there are beautiful acting moments from each Actor.

Very inspiring!

Great film by Marc Zammit. Excellently shot and a great soundtrack. It really makes you think about the plight of the homeless.

Marc Zammit has created a visually engaging film with beautiful locations and a skilled director of photography to capture picturesque London. Strong performances throughout. The humanization of people living on the streets is accomplished through a narrative that touches on domestic abuse, drug addiction, and unfortunate life mishaps beyond control.

This director is one to watch.

Homeless Ashes is a credit to Marc's understanding of how to relate a harsh reality to his audience through the use of exceptional cinematography and extreme sensitivity. Sometimes gritty and a hard watch, the overall message and the moving way in which it was delivered was outstanding and an honour to watch.
