To Nowhere

Great film! Read about it in the Guardian and streamed in on Curzon Home Cinema (love the films they host!). From what I've seen, it's genuinely amazing they did this with the budget they had - there's some really interesting interviews with the director online. Real filmmaking, nothing flashy, just pure vision and talent - it took 8 years of hard graft to finish, apparently! It's lovely to see a film like this on a platform like Curzon, it deserves to be seen. A real example of artistry trumping budget. If you're wondering what's happening at the cutting edge of Indie British filmmaking, I think this might be it!

This is a powerfully subtle film that explores a day in the life of two brilliantly realised characters as they search for meaning in their lives and explore what they mean to each other. Fabulously filmed and directed in a great series of locations around London lends the films a high sense of realism. The acting was phenomenal and the two characters were so flawed yet appealing. Would definitely recommend!

Two totally constrasting characters locked into a sadomasochistic relationship. Great naturalistic acting which drtaws the viewer into the highs and lows that can be the consequence of an addictive disturbed searching and grasping for meaning - yet going 'nowhere'. Despite it's darkness, I loved it's honesty.

I was lucky to be involved in this fil, I was the metal detector man. The crew were fantastic as were the cast. Great story line first class directing very well acted. A masterpiece from a very good writer director. A must see.

To Nowhere is a sensitive portrayal of the agonies and ecstasies of late adolescence. We accompany Tulip and Finn through a 24 hour period during which we witness their tangled and tortured relationship.

It's a nuanced piece. Taut but bone achingly tender. Grittily realistic but suffused with a surreal quality, aided by the moody cinematography. It is also funny. A thread of humour runs through the narrative and we laugh, albeit uncomfortably. In all its sweetness and sadness and dark comedy we as the audience are voyeurs who can only watch as events unravel.

It's too simplistic to call To Nowhere a 'Coming of Age' drama. It's complexity defies such easy categorisations and stereotypical tropes. As the credits roll nothing is neatly resolved and it is a testament to the power of the film that we care what happens to the characters after 24 hours in their company.

To Nowhere takes you Somewhere. Just not where you expect it to and it is all the more poignant for that.
