A gritty British drama, A Light Through Coloured Glass focuses on two people from the opposite side of the tracks. However unlikely, they soon befriend each other whilst dealing with their own personal problems.
From award-winning writer/director Mike Clarke (The Stranger, A Hand To Play), A Light Through Coloured Glass features some of the best up-and-coming UK talent in a film that is both harrowing and hilarious in equal measure.
With his wife having recently left him, William (Kyle Brookes) tries to keep his life afloat by dividing his time working as both a church organist and the host of a small, public access TV show. By chance, and by performing a good deed, he meets Tina (Sophia Leanne Kelly) – a foul-mouthed twenty something. Feeling sorry for William, and looking to repay him for helping her, Tina invites him to a house party. Surrounded by younger people indulging in drink and narcotics, William soon regrets meeting his new, so-called, friend, but when Tina finds herself indebted to a local drug dealer, he finds himself having to offer more help in order to fix her life, even though his own life is already upside down.
Starring Kyle Brookes (Once a Year on Blackpool Sands, The Stranger), Sophia Leanne Kelly (Waterside, The 33rd Sun), Danni Shepherd (Flower Boy), and Macaulay Cooper (The Bay, Punch)
