Festival Focus - Breach

h is a creative comedy with all the styling of a classic heist movie. We are introduced to two characters who seem to be nothing more than career criminals. Yet, we remain clueless about the couples motivations throughout the film until a final twist is revealed, which is not only humorous but is used to reflect on a more serious subject matter.

You’ll definitely have a fun time with Breach. It’s witty humour is played out naturally between its two leads and the comedy is ever more amplified by the small confined space of the car, which is the main location of this short. With the added bonus of a fun crime theme and it’s exciting score, Breach is a wonderful film for its short run time.

Set in a small Durham town follows TJ (Dave Turner) a publican who lends a hand to local community-based charities, through an incident TJ strikes up a friendship with Yara (Ebla Mari) a Syrian Refugee who has a passion for photography. Yara persuades TJ to open the back room of his pub, to allow people within the community to bond and enjoy cuisine from different nationalities.
