Echo Chamber: LFF21 - Day 11 - a podcast by Kevin Scott

On 'Day 11', the penultimate day of the '65th BFI London Film Festival' we have a surf documentary and a hard boiled revenge thriller!

Our @echochamberfp festival coverage is still moving along nicely!

Martyn Robertson writes & directs 'Ride the Wave'. Having travelled the world participating in competition surfing, 12-year-old Scottish champion Ben decides to put his life on the line to ride one of the biggest cold water waves in the world, at Mullaghmore, Ireland. If he gets it right, he joins an elite group. If he gets it wrong, the consequences are terrifying.

'Bull' Is written & directed by Paul Andrew Williams. After a 10-year absence, Bull (Neil Maskell), a former gang enforcer who returns to his former hood on a mission to find his son. With an ex-wife (Lois Brabin-Platt) who's a two-timing junkie and his father-in-law Norm (David Hayman) a psychopath gang boss whose firm has done Bull some serious wrongs. But He's seeking revenge on those who double-crossed him and left him for dead. And will stop at nothing to get back at those who must atone for their sins.
