An eclipse that never goes away. Penned by some of the Bristol's finest writers, "The Day That Broke" is an ensemble piece connecting 6 different stories that revolve around a solar eclipse. The various characters, on a number of timelines before, during, and after the event each respond differently to it - and indeed, those timelines become different worlds since the eclipse, mysteriously, never ends.
Directed by Tom Brereton Downs, The Day That Broke leans on a strong ensemble — Simon Barrett, Marc Bessant, Alice Grace — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2017.
