Wreckers is a tense and disturbing tale of what we believe but don’t know about those closest to us, set in a Fens village amid a pastoral landscape of epically stretching fields and woods and starring Claire Foy and Benedict Cumberbatch. It is the debut feature from female writer/director Dictynna Hood, whose previous work includes shorts Journey Man (2002) and The Other Man (2006), which BEV screened in 2007 and which was nominated for a BBC Upcoming Director Award.
