Movie Info

Zoë is a single mother who lives with her four children in Dartford. She is poor and can't afford to buy food. One day her ex-boyfriend drives by and asks her to go on a date with him. Scared that he doesn't want to go out with her, she lies and tells him that she is just babysitting the kids. This will be her first date in years.

An outstandingly excellent piece of short-story telling, benefitting from the compression effect that can only be achieved by a shorter rather than a longer narrative.

Audience Reviews for Wasp

Riddled with 'cor blimey' and living in a saaf Landan estate, a young mother juggles bringing up 4 young kids but not without living out the remainder of her youth. A gritty, funny (although not sure if it's supposed to be) and humbling short film, not sure if it's Oscar worthy but very glad it won anyway. I remember Andrea Arnold from No: 73, hasn't she done well for herself eh!

Really good short film. This was included on the UK release of Fish Tank, so I was curious to see something else by the same person who directed that. Also pretty gritty and follows a single mum living in a housing estate with her four young kids. Similar themes of desperation, and really well acted. I only wish it was longer so I could have seen what happened after the pair got home!
