A Running Jump
Among the many special commissions for London 2012 are four short films from leading British directors: Mike Leigh, Asif Kapadia, Lynne Ramsay and Max and Dania. The brief was to make a film inspired by the Olympics, and as you’d expect from the names involved, they’ve responded to the Games in very different ways - using settings from an inner city housing estate to rural rivers and lakes - and drawing on a variety of genres - from a colourful comedy full of tracksuits and trainers to a documentary exploring London’s political and social issues.
Written and directed by Mike Leigh for the London 2012 Festival, this sports-infused comedy follows a man trying to buy a second-hand car in east London. With Lee Ingleby and Eddie Marsan
What If?
A rendering of Rudyard Kipling's If, What If is a short film that tells the story of a boy from a crime-ridden inner city estate who learns fundamental life lessons on nobility, patience, generosity, and how to become an admirable young man.
Swimmer
A man's isolated passage, swimming through open water, is accompanied by snatches of movie soundtracks and references.
