Tippet Selected for RCS Film Festival & Reviewed

Sophie Kenny has had one of her most recent short films accepted into 'Red Carpet Screenings' Film Festival UK. 

'Strangers in a cinema' reviewed her film after the event

"Another 48 hour effort that has rightly earned some awards for director Sophie Kenny. Tippet is a powerful and beautifully put together short that certainly doesn’t hang around but definitely leaves you thinking. The sci-fi ‘Pinocchio’ concept works fantastically well and the production design is a marvel (especially on a budget), this coupled with a thoughtful script and some great performances mean that this should not be missed."
