Deserves all the plaudits and more

I saw Scrap as part of the Satisfied International Film Festival and it deservedly walked away with a handful of awards.

A tightly scripted film, expertly directed and with standout performances from its two leads (ably assisted by a strong supporting cast) it's a film that stays long in the memory, for all the right reasons.

It packs a real punch in its short run time and tackles the profundity of its subject without sentimentality or platitudes, presenting its characters as complex and multi-layered.

It doesn't spoon feed or sugar coat its message and leaves the audience hoping for a rewarding resolution. A film that's worth seeking out on the festival circuit!
