A new clip has been released online for ‘A Hundred Streets,’ which is making its World Premiere at the Los Angeles Film Festival tonight. The film is directed by Emmy and Golden Globe-nominated Jim O’Hanlon and stars Idris Elba and Gemma Arterton.
Also featured in the film are Charlie Creed-Miles, Franz Drameh, Ken Stott, Kierston Wareing and Tom Cullen.
A layered and gripping drama, with an original screenplay by Leon F Butler, it takes a fresh look at the vibrant and compelling life of a group of individuals in contemporary London – destination capital of the world. Idris Elba and Gemma Arterton play an estranged married couple, Emily and Max. He’s an ex-rugby player and she’s a miserable housewife. Franz Drameh will plays aspiring actor/ drug dealer Kingsly who strikes up an unlikely friendship with an aging actor.
A HUNDRED STREETS intersect the film’s setting. Chelsea is just down the road from high-rise estates, riverside opulence contrasts with the day-to-day grind. It’s in these streets that the characters face defining moments, major choices and fundamental change in their separate lives, as they negotiate their paths through life, paths that often interweave through our hundred streets.
