Here's one we've been clocking for a long time. It's called Unconditional and it's billed as a darkly comic psycho-romance from BAFTA-winning writer Joe Fisher and Directed by BAFTA-Nominee Bryn Higgins. Perhaps not quite as much sink as Fish Tank, this still feels like Leigh with a bit more Joie de Vivre.

The film is premiering at Slamdance 2012 in a special screening.

Synopsis:
Sixteen year-old twins Kristen and Owen are misfits in the real world, bored of caring for their mum and fantasising about murdering her. Then along comes Liam: 20s, tough, charming, full velocity, genuinely cool. Kristen fancies him with the intensity of someone in a fairytale.

Liam takes Owen out drinking – and the depth of Liam's mis-wired obsessions soon emerge. Liam offers unconditional love... on one condition. As the twins fall under his sway, snarled by a dangerous love, will they live to tell the tale?


Unconditional stars Christian Cooke (THE PROMISE, CEMETERY JUNCTION), Melanie Hill (STARDUST), Harry McEntire and Madeleine Clark.
