Certificate BBFC PG

Justin Edgar will be present at his film about a neurotic filmmaker working with disabled young people and getting everything wrong. The film broke ground by hiring wheelchair using actors for disabled parts, a practice which is scandalously rare. It also caused a stir when the BBFC bizarrely gave it an initial 12A certificate because it "deals with disability issues". It's actually a lovely neurotic comedy.
