Human Traffic

John Simm, Lorraine Pilkington and Danny Dyer star in this coming-of-age comedy drama written and directed by Justin Kerrigan. A group of five friends in Cardiff hope to escape from the drab mundanity of their daily lives by embarking on a hedonistic weekend of drugs, clubs and sex. Jip (Simm) is desperate for a successful romantic encounter after a series of recent disasters while Lulu (Pilkington) is tired of always being cheated on. Moff (Dyer) is a small-time drug dealer who also happens to be the son of a policeman, Koop (Shaun Parkes) is paranoid that someone is going to steal his girlfriend Nina (Nicola Reynolds) and she is weary of facing constant harassment at work. Together the five friends move from nightclubs to house parties getting increasingly intoxicated as the night progresses, all the while knowing that the inevitable comedown awaits them.
