Somers Town
From the acclaimed director of ‘This Is England’
Two teenagers, both newcomers to London, forge an unlikely friendship over the course of a hot summer. Tomo is a midlands runaway; Marek, a Pole, lives in the district of Somers Town, between King's Cross and Euston stations, where his dad is working on the Eurostar link. Despite their cultural differences, the boys are both infatuated with the same girl, and pass their days bickering over which of them loves her the most.

Critic Reviews:
- " Turgoose continues to convince as a kid whose personality wavers daily if not hourly, while Jagiello playfully suggests that Marek is becoming the perfect straight man. " – John Hartl
- " Somers Town is a small-scale jewel that will surprise you with its buoyant look at blighted lives. " – Walter V. Addiego
- " Somers Town is a funny and endearing character comedy whose extra-brief, 70-minute running time proves perfectly adequate for its slender, episodic story. " – Gary Goldstein
