The Mighty Redcar
In this real-life soap opera, filmed over a year in the North Yorkshire town, we focus on the relationships between two generations; one struggling to fulfil their hopes and dreams, the other trying to give them a leg up, show them the way and convince them that they, and the town, have a future.
REVIEWS
“It is billed as a real-life soap opera, but it is way more operatic – and real – than that. It is also exciting… This is proper heartwarming, heartrending film-making” – Chitra Ramaswamy, The Guardian
‘…warm, funny and engaging and I love it’ – Alison Graham, Radio Times 2018
