Project Detail

Sub Zero

Synopsis

Sub Zero is a 'right here, right now' British thriller, set against the back drop of a contemporary Middlesbrough. Where the all too real lives of the people of Grangetown clash with corrupt politics and 'big business'.
Inspired by the ever present subjects of crime, anti-social behaviour and 'Big Brother', it's a thriller, a love story and a document of life for young people in the urban North East of the 21st Century.
