The Fight
Award-winning comic actress Jessica Hynes makes her directorial debut with a hard-hitting drama about a mother who must stand up for her children in a world where bullying and intimidation are rife. Care worker Tina (Hynes) dotes on the infirm and vulnerable in Folkestone, where she has raised a family with her supportive husband Mick (Shaun Parkes). It's a stressful job and Tina relies on workouts at the local gym and self-help podcasts to keep her volatile emotions in check. When Tina learns that her oldest child Emma (Sennia Nannua) is being bullied at school by classmate Jordan (Liv Hill), she frets about the best course of action to protect her flesh and blood. Meanwhile, the stricken family prepares to welcome another mouth to feed: Tina's father Frank (Christopher Fairbank).
