Description
Adapted from the award-winning novel by Matt Thorne and featuring an exciting ensemble of rising British talent, 8 Minutes Idle is a darkly funny romantic comedy set in and around a dysfunctional Bristol call centre. Dan (Tom Hughes) has always taken the path of least resistence at work, at home, even in his love life. But when he's kicked out of the family home, he's faced with no option but to start secretly bedding down in the call centre where he works. Suddenly, everything that he's previously taken for granted - hot showers, clean clothes, friends, even his beloved cat is either disappearing or conspiring against him. As Dan's work/life balance spirals hilariously out of control, he finds himself fending off the attentions of his predatory boss (Montserrat Lombard) and being increasingly drawn to co-worker Teri (Ophelia Lovibond). But Teri is leading her own double life. One that will challenge Dan to do something he's never had to before, care about someone other than himself!
