DVD Description
Nina (Lauren Socha) is easy to find. She is on the industrial estate, near the gas tower, She is fifteen, addicted to drugs and on the game. George (Stephen Graham) is one of her nastier punters. His arrival turns the temperature up on her already combusting life. He is the scummiest of scummy men, someone you really don't want to be involved with, at all. A magician and a taxi driver offer Nina a quick fix but doesn't everyone want something in return? She won't take it lying down. Scummy man is a gripping glimpse into the lost and misplaced lives on todays backstreets. The film is brutally honest, intense and not afraid.
PLUS
Bonus Short: (5 mins) Events appear differently depending on who you are and where you're standing. 'JUST ANOTHER DAY' is a view of Nina's world where familiar events can have a completely different meaning and sometimes hope is found... Pop Promo: (3min 30) The original release of the promo for the Arctic Monkeys track 'When the Sun Goes Down'
and: The 'Making of' documentary looking at the unusual construction of this pop video and film
Synopsis
Based on the Arctic Monkeys song 'When the Sun Goes Down', SCUMMY MAN is a two-part film-short that dramatises the plight of society's castaways through the tragic story of a teenage prostitute (Lauren Socha) and her 'scummy man' pimp (Stephen Graham, SNATCH). Filmed in the industrial town of Sheffield, England, this gritty social commentary on the urban poverty and despair of Tony Blair's Britain was written and directed by screenwriter Paul Fraser (TWENTYFOURSEVEN, A ROOM FOR ROMEO BRASS) and stunningly shot on super-16mm film by cinematographer Danny Cohen (DEAD MAN'S SHOES).
