Lindy Heyman & Leigh Campbell on Kicks at EIFF 09

Published on June 2, 2010 | Written By Clare Callan

Kicks is a markedly assured feature debut from Lindy Heymann. An intelligent and witty comment on modern celebrity culture and the darker side of obsession, the story captures the intense chemistry between two friends as well as the vulnerability and yearning of adolescent emotions. Screenwriter Leigh Campbell and director Lindy Heyman talked to us at Edinburgh International Film Festival last year when the film premiered. The trailer is included in the interview so check it out and go and see it this weekend – out Friday!
