The Selfish Giant was released 25th October 2013 which had a budget of £1.4 million, it did make a profit but unfortunately I am able to specify that number. The production companies were the British Film Institute, Film 4 and Moonspun Films.
The writers were Clio Barnard and Oscar Wilde, Clio Barnard went on to direct this film as well, while Tracy O'Riordan was the producer of this film. Clio Barnard based the two main characters, Arbor and Swifty, on two young lads she met who were working as scrappers while she was filming The Arbor which was released 3 years before The Selfish Giant.
This film went on to win the British Independent Film Award for Best Technical Achievement.
This film is about two young lads , Arbor (played by Conor Chapman) and Swifty (played by Shaun Thomas), these two young lads are troublesome in school and decide that a way to earn money is by being scrappers for a man called Kitten (played Sean Gilder). How these two go about their work causes friction between the two and eventually causes a dramatic end.
Truly is a great drama film, down below is the link to The Selfish Giant ;
