The final film in this year’s New British Cinema Quarterly programme, brilliantlove stars North West-born actor Liam Browne as Manchester, a novice photographer who meets Noon, a shy taxidermist. Over a sweltering summer, Manchester documents their affair, creating wonderfully charged, erotic images and soon gets discovered as a bright new talent in the world of contemporary photography. As the art world closes in on their idyll, can this intimate, carnal relationship survive the chaos and turmoil of public exposure? brilliantlove has attracted critical acclaim for its cinematic and energetic portrayal of young love and is a must see for all fans of new British filmmaking talent.
Including a post-screening Q&A with Manchester-born lead actor Liam Browne and screenwriter Sean Conway.
