About the Movie -

"Sucked into debt and finding themselves trapped by evil loan shark Danny Nolan, the desperate residents of the Owen Street estate in Salford come to the conclusion that the only way to free themselves is by bumping him off. One fateful morning, after a rollicking, sexy house party, that is exactly what happens. However, these are not professional killers and things unravel when a tough, uncompromising woman starts asking awkward questions. They think she is a copper, but Steph is Nolan's wife and she is twice as evil as he ever was.

Nervous hilarity, guilt and stumbling paranoia quickly set in. This is a "We-dunnit" that cackles with wicked laughs, wild parties, community spirit and grisly twists and turns right up to the last second.

THE MOODS - BIOGRAPHY

The Moods have been wisely described as "Rage Against the Machine, The Prodigy and The Happy Mondays mixed into a grime-soufflé". Formed in Manchester in 2014, this 10-strong band unifies rap, brass and strings, delivering a brilliant fusion of drum & bass, hip-hop, reggae and EDM. All ten Moods bringing their own unique style and energy to every single live set, meaning their mighty music always sparks off a contagious need to dance from the very first song on the set-list. What's more, their lyrics are relatable and real; this is music to make you think, as well as dance. With such a dizzying mix of nstruments and passionate performers, their gigs are nothing short of spectacular. "It,s all about the BPM, say bassist Dave O'Rourke, and the feel of playing it live".

The Moods' debut album Missing Peace was released in September 2017 and rapidly made a phenomenal impact, with physical and download sales in over 24 countries, hundreds of thousands of streams and stellar reviews. Two powerful singles: Joy and P.O.P (Profit over People) received multiple plays on BBC Radio Lancashire & Sheffield, along with 35 other UK, regional and student FM stations. Further afield, global internet radio stations broadcasted tracks from Missing Peace to over 100 countries, whilst videos racked up in excess of 40,000 views on YouTube, Facebook, & Vevo TV. 2018 has been a momentous year.

The Moods are coming to the end of an incredible summer of festivals and gigs, that has seen over 15,000 attend their live shows, festival slots & headline tour dates across the UK. Crowds, press and music industry bloggers have been blown away, by the pure energy, enthusiasm and dance vibe that the moods bring to any stage. It's infectious and we dare anyone not to dance. The Summer single carnival was a massive worldwide smash, 20,000 streams, played in 50 countries and heard on over 45 UK, National. Regional and global FM/AM radio stations.
