Aneil Karia / GB, 2020 / 105 min.

"I wanted to make a film outside of definitions, to inhabit spaces that don’t have labels." British filmmaker Aneil Karia found in Ben Whishaw the ideal actor to play Joseph, an airport security officer who decides to leave everything behind. We follow him on his restless journey through London.

poster Surge (Aneil Karia, GB 2020)
Joseph seems to be leading a perfectly well-adjusted life. Seems – because on the inside, he is a pressure-cooker. Joseph is a loner who has little or no contact with his colleagues at the airport; his parents humiliate him.
