The Snuts 'Circles' by Michael Sherrington

Rob Ulitski - 14th Mar 2024

Tony Curran plays a taxi driver remembering the love of his life in Michael Sherrington's wistful promo for The Snuts. 

Sitting in his taxi, a lifetime of memories play out on the backseat, giving viewers an emotive peek into the main character's past life. Curran (Mayflies, Mary & George) gives a nuanced performance as a person dealing with the passing of his wife, while Sherrington's direction allows the narrative to develop to produce something very moving.

“Grief can be so traumatic," says the director. "In my personal experience of loss I have been struck by the complexity of the emotional journey.

"At times I have found it better to face this path head on rather than locking these feelings away. So when the band approached me with this track and we discussed its themes I was interested in creating a film that explored this difficult subject.

"It was great collaborating with Tony on this challenging and sensitive subject matter; he is such an incredible talent. He really embraced the role and was totally committed to exploring this journey with me.”

Elevated by Jamie Quantrill's striking cinematography, it's a must watch. Just make sure you have the tissues ready.
