LOS ANGELES - October 20, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
'Ire' marks Ross McCall's directorial debut, starring Craig Fairbrass, Stephen Odubola, and Jason Flemyng, and tells the story of life in prison for Steve (Fairbrass), who is incarcerated for double murder in a maximum-security prison. We follow as he navigates his struggle against redemption, the system, and his inner turmoil. His life is made even more difficult when his estranged daughter requests to meet him for the first time and a 19-year-old man (Stephen Odubola) is placed as his cellmate.
Amongst the other projects on Jabre's upcoming film slate is 'Boiling Point'. The feature film adapted from the award-winning short film is directed by Philip Barantini, starring Stephen Graham, recently in Martin Scorsese's 'The Irishman.' Other actors include Jason Flemyng, Vinette Robinson and Ray Panthaki. 'Boiling Point' is about a chef, played by Stephen Graham, who tries to keep his restaurant functioning on the busiest day of the year in the run-up to Christmas.
