Collection Only (2018) - https://youtu.be/HC40FoTcbjw

When a young couple (Jasmine Jobson - Top Boy) involved in care proceedings travel across the country to collect a motorbike, their resolve to get their baby back is tested, as is their relationship.

A short social realist film, Collection Only uses a combination of Ken Loach's long lens documentary style to capture Newcastle's town life, and Mike Leigh's subtle character dynamics to create a film which shows rather than tells a story of desperation and hope. This is the balancing act often experienced by those living on the fringes of society.
