SEASIDE SPECIAL | Hilarious Brexit Based Documentary is Coming to UK & Irish Cinemas

Tull Stories is excited to share that new documentary, SEASIDE SPECIAL, will be coming to UK and Irish cinemas from 10th November.

Oh, we do like to be beside the seaside… or, rather, watching it on the big screen…

SEASIDE SPECIAL is a highly entertaining portrayal of a place seemingly out of time, full of characters who couldn’t be more British. It is an affectionate homage, an up-close look at Britain’s last original end-of-the-pier variety show, and its local heroes preparing for the 2019 summer season. A tribute to handmade entertainment, with quintessentially English humour through German eyes and about community.

In the sleepy coastal town of Cromer in Norfolk, we meet a colourful cast of inspiring and original characters and experience a microcosm of modern Britain in the midst of tremendous change during Brexit.

Shot on crisp 16mm Kodak film, Seaside Special delves into a ‘microcosm of Brexit England’ and reflects on the impact of the changing political landscape as the company prepares for their grand summer finale – in a chaotic and divisive climate of uncertainty and change. Ultimately, this is a film about community and acceptance.

Written and directed by Jens Meurer, most well known for his Oscar-nominated production of The Last Station and Black Book, the film is a German-Belgian co-production with a brass band score by the Fabulous Steve Willaert Brass Band.

Featured in festivals across thre globe the film was also winner of the Cambridge Film Festival Audience Award and a recieved “Special Mention” at the Hofer Filmtage 2021.
