Project Detail

Tooting Broadway

Synopsis

Tooting Broadway, is a film about what we are willing to do for the people we love, but deeper than that it focuses on the way we live our lives and the choices we feel we must make to survive. What is important to you? Your country, your family or your friends? Can you serve more than one master or must you choose?

2009, on the eve of the Tamil Parliament Protests, a mother reaches out to her estr...anged son, Arun, to return home to stop his younger brother from making a potentially catastrophic decision. Meanwhile, a seemingly meaningless murder will have profound consequences for Arun, his old friends and his family.

Arun has 24 hours to make things right, but his commitment to his new life is tested as old loyalties are brought to the fore and threaten to drag Arun into a world he has sworn to leave behind him.

Year:

Lil, a young mother, struggles to connect with her newborn baby. Ashamed and exhausted, she tells no one not even her domineering mother, Judith.

When the family relocates to Judith’s childhood home, isolated deep in the countryside, buried tensions erupt and old secrets surface. The creature closes in, and a primal battle begins between a now-desperate mother and a relentless, all-consuming force.
