Talk To Me

Starring: Gary Kitching and Maxine Kerr

Tony and Sarah´s paths cross within a decayed and rotting theatre. Sheltered from their troubles outside, they spark an unusual friendship, but the pressure to keep their secrets hidden eventually become too much.

This sentimental and atmospheric film was the kind of gently paced story I had previously avoided, but as this was my last film at University I decided to experiment in the areas I was least experienced. Primarily what made Talk To Me so special was the incredible location. Sadly this beautiful theatre has now been demolished.
