BFI FAN New Releases: Limbo

Limbo is the next title in the BFI FAN New Releases scheme. Ben Sharrock’s critically adored deadpan comedy-drama Limbo is a wry, funny and poignant cross-cultural satire that subtly sews together the hardship and hope of the refugee experience, shining a light on the hearts and lives of those at the centre of a crisis that is mostly only experienced through the headlines.

Dir: Ben Sharrock | Cert TBC  | 103 mins | UK | 2020
