Awaydays
Pee Wee
Suenan Ultravox y Joy Division. Estamos en el noroeste de Inglaterra y corre el año 1979. Carty tiene 19 años y está bastante aburrido de su vida. Lo único que le hace vibrar son las peleas que presencia cada sábado de fútbol, protagonizadas por una estilosa pandilla de jóvenes llamada The Pack: Un grupo de "casuals" (para quienes la ropa no es sólo ropa, es todo un lenguaje) que visten impermeables, polos de tenis Lacoste, pantalones Lois y zapatillas Adidas. Cuando Carty conoce a Elvis, miembro de The Pack, ve su oportunidad de entrar. Pero Elvis es un chico atormentado que no se lo pondrá tan fácil. Basada en la novela de culto de Kevin Sampson, Awaydays penetra en el corazón del hooliganismo de los primeros años de la Inglaterra de Thatcher. (FILMAFFINITY)
This Little Life
Luke
A powerful one-off drama written by Rosemary Kay , winner of the BBC's Dennis Potter award for new screenwriting. Sadie and Richie MacGregor are thrown into the terrifying world of neo-natal intensive care when their son Luke is born prematurely. Willed on by his desperate parents, he gradually grows in strength - but as Sadie develops a unique bond with her son, her relationship with Richie begins to suffer.
Liam
Liam
A morality tale of xenophobia, religious prejudice, mob violence, poverty, and their effect on two children in Liverpool during the Depression. When a shipyard closes, Liam and Teresa's dad loses his job. Liam, who's about 8, making his first Holy Communion, gets a regular dose of fire and brimstone at church. Teresa, about 13, has a job as a maid to the Jewish family that owns the closed shipyard. The lady of that house is having an affair, and Teresa becomes an accomplice. Liam stutters terribly, especially when troubled. Dad comes under the sway of the Fascists, who blame cheap Irish labor and Jewish owners. A Molotov cocktail brings things to a head.
