SALT WATER TOWN

WINNER - Sony Future Filmmaker Award - Fiction Category 2023

Liam spends his days drinking with friends and racing his motorbike across the roads of his Welsh coastal town. He helps run a failing caravan park with his father, Glenn, who clings to the belief that prosperity will soon return.
