What If (2012x32)

Date de diffusion: Juil 30, 2012

What If, from StreetDance directing duo Max and Dania, is one of four short films co-commissioned by Film4 and BBC Films for the London 2012 Festival to showcase UK filmmaking talent. The film, a rendering of Rudyard Kipling's much-loved poem If, tells the story of Joe (George Sargeant), a young teen who learns through an older, wiser boy (Noel Clarke), fundamental life lessons on nobility, patience and generosity; lessons on how to become an admirable young man. Influenced by Wim Wenders' Wings of Desire, What If is a celebration of urban youth culture and London, showcasing the best of the UK's freerunning, skateboarding, BMXing and in-line skating, and featuring urban art by Matthew Small.
