Scrapper is a refreshing and uplifting story that celebrates the power of love and friendship. Living happily alone in her London flat and filling it with magic, 12-year-old Georgie (Lola Campbell) must confront reality when her estranged father Jason (Harris Dickinson) shows up out of nowhere. Uninterested in a sudden new parental figure; Georgie remains stubbornly resistant to his efforts to force her to confront reality.
“A restless energy of pre-adolescence is captured by Regan’s filmmaking techniques.” Sundance Review
