Invalid Debris

Written and directed by Robbi Stevens and Erim Metto from improvisations by the cast, Invalid Debris is the first film project by The Young Persons' Theatre Company, in collaboration with Rustic Spirit Productions.

Shot over twelve days in August 2003, Invalid Debris tells the story of ten young people who, although they do not initially realise it, are permanently linked by their involvement in the death of a young girl. One year later they are brought together by the only person who knows the whole story of what happened on that fateful night. Locked into a deserted building together, they are forced to examine their lives and, finally, face up to the truth about themselves...

Invalid Debris is a thoughtful and moving examination of the way in which our actions impact on the world around us. Powerfully acted by the young cast, many of whom, at that time, had no previous film acting experience, Invalid Debris is set to become a classic of its type.
