Second Coming
105’ Film4 & BFI
Written and directed by Debbie Tucker Green
Starring Nadine Marshall and Idris Elba, BAFTA award-winning director and playwright Debbie Tucker Green’s bold feature debut Second Coming asks a massive ‘what if?’.
Set in present day London, Jackie (Nadine Marshall) is pregnant and knows it’s not her husband’s (Idris Elba). She says she hasn’t slept with anybody else and now she doesn’t know if she is losing her mind. Over the course of a year the film follows the couple and their 11 year old son JJ (Kai Francis Lewis) as Jackie struggles to explain her pregnancy and accusations start to fly.
Second Coming received its world premiere at the Toronto Film Festival in September 2014 and went on to play at the London Film Festival, the Stockholm Film Festival and the Sydney Film Festival. It won the The Big Screen Award at the Rotterdam Film Festival 2014.
Second Coming had its theatrical release in June 2015 and is available through VOD on iTunes, Amazon Instant Video, GooglePlay and Wuaki TV.
In January 2016 Debbie Tucker Green was nominated for the Outstanding Debut by a British Writer, Director or Producer BAFTA for Second Coming.
