BFI NETWORK South West and BFI Academy Bristol are partnering to give 10 individuals a free ticket to Watershed’s preview of Scrapper on Wed 16th August, featuring a pre-screening roundtable with director Charlotte Regan and a post-screening Q&A.
There are 5 tickets available through BFI Academy.
Please RSVP by emailing film.academy@watershed.co.uk. Tickets will be allocated on a first-come, first-serve basis.
The debut feature of Charlotte Regan, best known for her award-winning shorts and music videos, is a triumphant comedy-drama with a lot of heart and a splash of magic. After her beloved mother passes away, 12-year-old Georgie believes she can get by on her own. Scrappy and resourceful, she steals bikes with her best friend Ali. She defintely has no interest in getting to know her absentee father Jason, who drops into her garden one day – and back into her life. With Scrapper, Regan is firing on all cylinders, presenting a refreshingly upbeat and vibrant spin on the working-class family drama. Charismatic newcomer Lola Campbell brings bounding energy and terrific comic timing as the irrepressible Georgie, while Harris Dickinson delivers an equally fun and empathetic turn as Jason, a man desperately trying to find his feet as a dad. It’s a sweet journey that will leave you wishing you could stay longer in Regan’s world.
