Urchin

Mike is a homeless young man in London, struggling with addiction and poverty, trapped in a cycle of self-destruction as he attempts to turn his life around. Along the way, he encounters unexpected chances for a fresh start. This poignant drama from director Harris Dickinson explores the harrowing challenges of homelessness and drug addiction, and the uphill battle of winning over supporters to these causes. With Frank Dillane delivering an unflinchingly authentic performance, Urchin is a powerful and emotionally raw debut that sheds light on the complexities of those struggling to overcome their circumstances.
