Hilda Faragher writes: "Car park is one of the most fascinating films that i have ever watched. It has remained in my memory since i first saw it well over 12 months ago: An achievement in itself.

My favourite part, is when the job interviewee became the mental patient, and the mental patient got the job! This is not too far away from the kind of situation that can arise, in big institutions.

The music was really good throughout, and most imaginatively accompanied the script." Hilda.

A killer docu-soap that suddenly turns into a thriller. This feature film starts as a fast moving, almost surreal, documentary set in a Salford car park. Legendary documentary filmmaker Randy Henry will take us inside the secret world of car parks.

The three men who work there live in their own little world. Steve Abbott dreams of a distant unobtainable future, the one they call SAS tries to recapture the certainties of a lost past, the third, Frank, simply pretends he is not there at all.

"Brilliant. This films works on so many levels. I really enjoyed it." Hilda.
