Forgotten Man
Running time: 84 mins
A precarious romance against a dazzling cityscape. Carl, a young actor in a theatre company for the homeless, meets Meredith, a wealthy young woman in town for a family affair. Taking to the ever-bustling streets of London, they spend the following night and day together, and suddenly, Carl is torn between truth and appearances, as fringes of society clash with the upper class elite. Featuring an arresting score and hypnotic black and white imagery, as well as a stunning turn from Jerry Hall (Batman, 1989), Forgotten Man is an original, bright glimpse into a world of two young people caught in a 24 hour whirlwind of romance, lies, hope, and compassion.
