Lucky Trailers

“Set in Liverpool in the early 70s, the film tells the story of Samuel 'Lucky' Ubooto, a half African, half Irish man in his 20s whose decidedly unlucky career as a criminal has resulted in a series of stretches in prison for theft. The story follows Lucky on the day of his release from his latest sentence. As he wanders around Liverpool, not really belonging anywhere, it becomes clear that he is still waiting for his father, a man who has long since abandoned Lucky and his family, to return and take him back 'home' to Africa.” - Richard Parkin

TeenzTen An action-packed slog
Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Fleur Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
