THE COMEDIAN
A young comedian tries to hit it big it in the cut-throat stand-up comedy world of Soho, London – in production. Tom Skholnick is one of the most exciting new directors in the UK who made his way through oustanding shorts and drama for the BBC and Channel 4. Tom 's approach to directing is unique and draws on strong, authentic improvised perfornances that can recalll the work of Mike Leigh (Secrets & Lies, Vera Drake), or more rcently Steve McQueen (Hunger, Shame).
