Desperate to afford medication to save his dad, PAIGE (Christopher Hughes) contacts NEWBURY (Timothy Bentinck - The Thick Of It, The Archers), his father’s old adversary who knows the location of a hoard of coins. But Newbury knows there’s more buried at Monk’s Farm than gold, and sets out to settle an old score. Director Julian Stevens was interesting in exploring shifting perspectives, wrong-footing the viewer with hidden pasts, and secret, inner-natures. Audiences will see nods to Nick Roeg - in the time jumps, and oblique story-telling - and early Polanski - in the intense visualisations of disjointed inner worlds - along with other stylised, psychological, surreal films of the 1970s. Anna Bogacz’ atmospheric cinematography makes use of soft, rich images and primary colours, and Christopher Kemsley’s haunting, off-key score contributes to this distinctive, immersive world. GILT features a characterful, menacing performance from Tim Bentinck, and a blistering intensity from newcomer Christopher Hughes.
