Bare
Director: Lorna Tucker

BARE is a coming-of-age survival story set in the shadows of London. After running away as a teenager, Sophie finds herself living on the streets, navigating a world shaped by danger, loss and invisibility. Amid the darkness, she discovers a fragile sense of belonging - a chosen family whose connection becomes her lifeline. What begins as a fight to survive becomes a journey of resilience and self-discovery, as Sophie learns that even in the harshest places, community can be a source of light. BARE is an empowering true story about endurance, identity and finding hope where it is least expected.

Someone's Daughter, Someone's Son
Director: Lorna Tucker
Year: 2024
SOMEONE'S DAUGHTER, SOMEONE'S SON is the most recent film from director Lorna Tucker, maker of the acclaimed WESTWOOD: PUNK, ICON, ACTIVIST. Narrated by Colin Firth, the film tells the story of three main characters who have lived on the street. As well as moving personal stories, in a surprising narrative twist in the film, we see projects across the UK which are helping to address the causes of street homelessness and we meet experts who help us understand the root causes of rough sleeping and what can be done to stop it. It is a film which is moving, enlightening and enraging and aims to change public attitudes to homelessness — showing how easy it is to slip into it and how all of the homeless are someone’s daughter or someone’s son.
