On Falling
The importance of human connection lies at the heart of this powerful, nuanced portrait of a young Portuguese warehouse employee in Scotland.
Director: Laura Carreira
Overview
Constantly working against the clock at a vast fulfilment centre, Aurora craves connection but enjoys only the briefest of exchanges with her co-workers and those in her small flat-share. This powerful meditation on contemporary social isolation is richly drawn through Laura Carreira’s assured direction and impeccable scripting, making On Falling one of the most exciting UK debuts of the year.
