Aaron Dunleavy and Joseph Ollman
Aaron and Joseph studied Film Practice at University of the Arts London. The film is influenced by Aaron’s childhood in the North of England, which inspired many of the characters and story, with non-professional actors and kids who were street casted from local schools and youth groups making up the key cast.
With a crowd-funded budget of less than £1000, the film is a product of lots of collaborative relationships with local organizations, businesses and people.
