By Matthew Broughton. Against the backdrop of the approaching Olympics, three residents of Dagenham see their lives fundamentally altered.

By Matthew Broughton. 

A dark hymn to Dagenham in East London. Freddy wants to be an artist. Danny wants to clean up the streets. And Kath just wants the pictures to come back to her TV. As the Olympics loom large, something world-changing is about to happen to one family.

Directed by James Robinson

Dagenham resident, Matthew Broughton, paints a bleak, yet ultimately life affirming, picture of a community dealing with seismic economic shocks, as the attention of the world focuses on them. A contemporary parable from a fast changing world.
