WASHED UP - 2018                                                                                UK. 2018. Duration 39:46. Colour

An ageing comedy duo, stranded in an out of season fishing village, must decide if the devil you know is better than the devil you don't.

Washed Up is a bleakly comic study of a personal and professional relationship in crisis. An unflinching look at the combustible tension that drives Desperate Men, one of the UK's best loved street theatre companies, to keep making vital work, for and with the people, after 37 years. The creative and emotional mechanics of their fractious yet fruitful partnership are laid bare, as they reflect on personal and collective mortality, ecological precarity, and a unique legacy of desperation.
