Urchin at GFT
3 – 16 October, 2025
The stunning directorial debut from Harris Dickinson, powered by an outstanding, award-winning performance from Frank Dillane.
Mike (Dillane), a rough sleeper on the streets of London, is trapped in a cycle of self-destruction as he attempts to turn his life around. Moving between short-term jobs and small-time hustles, he must balance the hopeful rush of a fresh start with a past that is holding him back.
By turns exhilarating and poetic, Urchin is a bold, vibrant and utterly unmissable portrait of life on the margins.
★★★★ “Harris Dickinson makes a terrifically impressive debut” — Guardian
