Shallow Grave 30 Anniversary

17 – 23 May, 2024
The lives of a trio of flatmates spiral into violence after they keep a suitcase of cash they find after their new flatmate dies in Danny Boyle’s blackly comic debut.
Director Danny Boyle, writer John Hodge and producer Andrew Macdonald would go on to create even bigger waves with Trainspotting two years later but they laid down a marker of what was to come with this blackly comic thriller. Christopher Eccleston, Ewan McGregor and Kerry Fox were also all near the start of their careers when they took on the roles of a trio of self-satisfied flatmates who decide to keep a suitcase full of money after their newest lodger dies. Macabre mayhem ensues as they try to dispose of the body and decide how to divide up the cash.
