This shoestring feature, begun as a community project, has garnered plaudits at festivals in Ireland and north America. Devised with local teenagers at a south Liverpool Internet café, and part-funded by drug money (well, 20 grand from Glaxo Smith Kline), it’s a funny and touching day in the life of the Potts family, starring locals amid established actors like Andrew Schofield and Kate Fitzgerald. Music is by Pete Wylie of The Mighty Wah!
Critics
“A wonderful, magical, uplifting tale of one ordinary day in the life of an extraordinary working-class family - or vice versa.”
