Synopsis

Father and son Bill and Karl (real life father and son Bob and Robin Hill) have just been released from jail free and clear, but all is not well at Down Terrace. Patriarchs of a small crime family, their business is plagued with infighting. Karl has had more than he can take of his old man's philosophizing and preaching, and Bill thinks Karl's dedication to the family is seriously compromised when he takes up with an estranged girlfriend who claims to be carrying his baby. To make matters worse, there's an unidentified informant in their midst that could send them all to prison for a very long time, and none of their associates can be trusted.

The feature film debut of writer/director Ben Wheatley, co-written by star Robin Hill, DOWN TERRACE is a darkly funny work of social surrealism, described in the press as "The Sopranos" if imagined by Mike Leigh or Ken Loach. Produced by Andrew Starke of Boum Productions, and executive produced by Baby Cow Films, Steve Coogan and Henry Normal's production company ("24 Hour Party People," "The Mighty Boosh"), the film features stars of such beloved British TV shows as "Spaced," "The Office" and "Extras."
