Description

In this Film Interview podcast episode, filmmaker Jonathan Zaurin talks to UK film critic James Learoyd for UK Film Review about Zaurin's new movie, Derelict.


Dive into the gritty world of British crime cinema with this exclusive filmmaker interview. UK Film Review critic James Learoyd sits down with director Jonathan Zaurin to discuss his latest feature, the critically acclaimed drama "Derelict".


Hailed as a "mesmerisingly fractured tale of vengeance, grief and disintegrating lives", Derelict follows Abigail (Suzanne Fulton), a young woman consumed by her father's brutal murder. Her path of revenge collides with that of Matt (Michael Coombes), a young man whose life is upended by his criminal brother's return from prison.


In this interview, Jonathan Zaurin delves into the creative process behind this compelling and unconventional film. Discover how he masterfully weaves together fragmented timelines and a striking blend of black and white and colour cinematography to explore themes of justice, memory, and morality. With powerhouse performances and a narrative that questions whether closure is ever truly possible, Derelict is a gradual descent into the emotional wreckage left behind by violence.


A must-watch for fans of thought-provoking independent cinema, this interview offers a unique insight into the making of an award-winning British thriller that garnered extensive acclaim on its premiere at FrightFest.


Derelict is on digital now from Miracle Media and on Blu-ray 22 September from 101 Films.
