Running In Traffic
Bryan Larkin, Anna Kerth, Kenneth Cranham, Atta Yaqub, Anne Downie, Ross Maxwell
Two damaged lives obliviously run parallel in the heart of the same city.
Although they have never met, Joe and Kayla have much in common. As they each struggle with their own personal demons, their mirrored lives simultaneously spiral into darker, more dangerous worlds. Featuring strong performances (including a menacing turn from Kenneth Cranham), a script that cleverly employs sparse, effective use of dialogue, and the kind of stark, atmospheric cinematography that exposes the honesty of emotion, this is a brave and powerful work.

I have nothing to do with them. I've seen the film and feel the vitriol that's leveled against it to be disproportionate. I had a few minor reservations about RIT but on the whole it's a well acted and a well made Scottish film that deserves a bigger audience. Because ultimately it's the audience who decide whether a film is good or not.
And we wonder why there's no Scottish film industry. Peace.
