FARRICK // SCOTTISH SHORT FILM
FARRICK // Short Film (2026) “Contains more truth in its 15 minute runtime than most features you’ll see this year. A remarkable achievement from a visionary working class filmmaker.” — Darren McGarvey A dyslexic teenager from Glasgow runs away to Edinburgh after a clash at school—forcing him to confront identity, belonging, and the path he must choose for his future. SYNOPSIS Neglected by absent parents, dyslexic teenager Connor Farrick struggles within a fractured home life and strained relationship with his older sister, Suzy. After a confrontation at school pushes him to breaking point, Connor runs away from Glasgow to Edinburgh — seeking escape, but instead facing deeper questions about identity, belonging, and who he might become. ABOUT THE FILM Farrick is the fiction debut from BAFTA Award–winning Scottish filmmaker Iain Henderson, created with a local cast and crew and grounded in working-class Scottish life. Filmed across Glasgow, Harthill, and Edinburgh, the film explores identity, education, poverty, and belonging through a raw and authentic lens. 🎶 SOUNDTRACK Featuring music from: Somebody’s Child Man of Moon Bang Dirty (MOG – 2× BAFTA winner) Hector Bizerk DJ Manky 🎭 CAST Connor Farrick — @lewis_ray_official Suzy Farrick — @oliviacaw Mr Rothesay — Alexander Donaghy 🎬 CREW Written by @hendofilm & @lewis_ray_official Directed / Produced / Edited by @hendofilm Executive Producers: @richard_melvin / Ann Henderson DOP / Colourist / Graphics / Stills: @wtoppingcreative Sound Design: @seantheproducer Assistant Director: @robertson_media Camera Assistant: @charlieelliis Drone Operator: @thomasthesearchengine Artwork: @hollythomsonart Costume: @seek_a_new_ Make-Up: @oszostkafilm / @siiobhnn Post Production: @savalaspost 🌍 LOCATIONS Glasgow / Harthill / Edinburgh 🏆 PRESS “One of the most exciting and talented young filmmakers in Scotland.” — The Herald “An award-winning creative force of nature from Glasgow.” — The List Hot 100 📢 FOLLOW & SUPPORT Subscribe: @sketchyproduct1ons Instagram: @hendofilm 🔍 SEARCH Farrick short film #shortfilm #scottishfilm #indiefilm #dramafilm #ukfilm #glasgow #edinburgh
