THE COIN

SHORT FILM 16MM

A supermarket trolley. A searcher and his quest to find a rare coin.

The Coin is a neo urban western adventure with Suli (18) our South Sudanese protagonist at its epicentre. He is a larger than life urban shopping trolley rustling pseudo cowboy. A modern hero in his younger brother Dem’s (12) eyes. Suli is shown throughout the film via low camera angles to highlight his larger than life character. When it comes to visualising The Coin , I drew inspiration from the films of filmmakers Wes Anderson and Sergio Leone. His films such as Once Upon a Time in the West and A Fistful of Dollars to create a wonderful sense of tension and escape.
