Filmed summer 2024, this independent feature will have its 2nd-ever screening in California in March. I fear the US may be a no-go destination for me personally, but I'll try. If you can represent me there, do. Further UK screenings hopefully from April onwards. tickets.cinequest.org/websales/pag...
