Extremely pleased to say Wings will be playing at London Film Festival next month.
Making this short film was a long labour of love for many and I couldnāt imagine a more perfect place for it to screen.

'Wings' is a special film in our festival, written by the late Sonya Hale, a Clean Break Member & writer.
This beautiful film is a love letter to Sonya's son and a signal of hope for when she's gone. Dir. @boydcape
