LOOK BOTH WAYS (2005)

Cast

Plot

The death of a man in a train accident is the pin that holds together five initially disparate characters and the very different ways these people deal with the concept of mortality and tragedy. Central to this slice-of-life tale are Nick and Meryl, one riddled with cancer, the other tormented by her terror, brought to life in watercolour animations, that around every corner lurks a violent premature death. Despite the subject matter 'Look Both Ways' is not a depressing film, Sarah Wiatt has managed to create, with a good deal of style and originality, a thoughtful but ultimately upbeat love story shot through with gallows humour.
