Sink
 
10 minutes
 
A Channel4 commission for ‘The Deal’.
 
Sink is a rough and ready drama that was shot on DV but printed to 35mm film and had a cinema release in 1999.
 
The film was inspired by my experiences living in Nottingham. It tells the story of a struggling green grocer. There’s a big special effect at the end that meant we had to build the shop three times. Once in a disused shop with a hole in the floor. Once in a disused shop with a hole in the ceiling. And once more in a canal boat dry dock so that we could flood it.
