About this movie

Climate change, migration, disability, homelessness and sexuality are just some of the subjects explored in this groundbreaking anthology of twenty short films from twenty directors that together offer a unique snapshot of the UK in 2020. From comedies and dramas, through to documentaries and experimental pieces, made by a mix of established names and new talent, the collection reflects the state of our nation as seen by the twenty diverse filmmaking teams behind them. Bringing together artists working across film, TV, theatre, animation, dance and radio, The Uncertain Kingdom directors include Antonia Campbell-Hughes (Bright Star, Kelly + Victor), Hope Dickson Leach (The Levelling), Ellen Evans (Life in Miniature) and Ray Panthaki (Official Secrets, Collette). The ensemble cast features Mark Addy (The Full Monty), Steven Berkoff (Rambo: First Blood Part II, Beverly Hills Cop), Sally Bretton (Not Going Out), Paul Kaye (Game of Thrones) and Mark O'Halloran (The Virtues).
