Unfortunately, this one will never make it through post... and it's a real shame. The story is about a father's and daughter's coping mechanisms as they recover from the death of their wife/mother.

Looks pretty good quality too.

Yeah, I thought it was pretty good acting which is rare. Too bad.

Pretty cool.  And that's a shame too.

The guy on the left.  That's Les Battersby from Coronation Street?!  Of course I use the characters name as I haven't a scooby on his real name.

Any other well known actors in this film?

Ha! That is Les Battersby lol the guys name is Bruce Jones, I googled it.

Why is this going no further?

This one didn't have Bruce, it had George Newton (This is England) starring. It isn't going any further because it ran out of money. The director has other projects going on and working on this now would be going backwards for him.. So, I think it's a combination of two things. He also had Graeme Park doing the music - one of the original founders of the UK rave scene.

I was really looking forward to this. Shit happens.

Cheers!

Looks like it would have been a quality film. Also looks like they were pretty deep into post-production, it's a shame it fell through.

Cheers, Warren.

There was a very short sample done as well that shows a little of George Newton. Here:

Could be me being dim, but did you put up the wrong teaser in the opening post? The new clip looks like a different film
