Sub Zero
By Ian Dowson
UK 2005
When Zero Tolerance and fear of the 'anti social' are taken to their logical conclusion, men like Ronnie Lord will be listened to and voted into positions of power for their own, and other people's profit.
The film is a 'right here, right now' British thriller, set against the backdrop of a contemporary Middlesbrough, where the all-too-real lives of the people of Grangetown clash with the kind of politics and 'big business' that would love to rule over them. A 'State of the Nation' drama that unfolds within Teesside's industrial and council estate landscape and draws Carl and Sabrina [A Romeo and Juliet for the Anti - Social Age] into the bowels of its conspiracy.
Inspired by the subjects of crime, anti-social behaviour and 'Big Brother', Sub Zero is a thriller, a love story and a document of life for young people in the urban North East of the 21 st Century.
