Making It

Synopsis

Making It is an original and quirky comedy-drama following one man’s search for love, creative fulfilment and a pencil sharpener. Making It provides a uniquely British take on the challenges faced by today’s thirty-somethings as they try to make their mark on the world.

George Banbury is a 33 year old struggling actor best known for having appeared alongside a troll in a Wine Gums advert. Stuck in a rut and living with his parents, George is going nowhere fast. An unexpected pregnancy and a chance encounter with an ex-girlfriend sees George attempt to expose his inner leading man to a world that has already cast him as a supporting artiste.

Funny and painfully honest, MAKING IT will resonate with anyone who has ever asked themselves, "is this really it?"
