Officialy release in the UK this April, the Guardian described Rocks as the best film at this year’s Toronto Film Festival. Director Sarah Gavron, along with writers Theresa Ikoko and Claire Wilson together created a magical piece of cinema centred on Shola (aka Rocks) a British-Nigerian girl and her younger brother Emmanuel. When their mother goes AWOL the siblings are faced with a foster home and separation, unless they can escape the clutches of social services. Can't wait to WATCH👆🏿
