Sunday, 27th June 2010 Movie Night – 20.00 – Cultural center Q Shank Drama, GB, 2009, 89’, Beta pal, Slovene subtitles Cal, an 18-year-old Scally lad and gang member has nothing in his life except drugs, sex, random acts of violence and a secret that he keeps hidden from his mates. For no good reason an innocent student, Olivier, falls victim by the gang. Cal steps in to restrain them and creates a distraction allowing Olivier to run free. Then he chases after him and offers him a lift by way of an apology. Sensing that there was something more to Cal’s good samaritan act, Olivier allows Cal to stay with him for a few days. Worlds collide as the lives of Cal and Olivier intersect in Shank, a gritty coming of age/rites of passage drama.
