Flowered Up's 'Weekender' was released in 1992. It was a film ahead of its time, both in form and content. Through uncompromising yet imaginative ways, director WIZ engaged with contemporary issues that mainstream media were eager to sensationalize. Consequently, it was branded with an 18 certificate and banned by both the BBC and ITV, never reaching a wide audience. For the past three decades, 'Weekender' has bubbled just below the surface, gaining genuine cult status and influencing a vast network of creators.
