The film will tell the story of Buddy, a young boy who cares for his mum who suffers from Multiple Sclerosis. Buddy finds solace in music from the sixties and meets Doley who is an actor who appeared in the original Quadrohenia film and decides to take Buddy out for a day of scooters and a look at the Mod life.
The film’s Director Devlin Crow said: “I have always had an affinity with Quadrophenia due to growing up in Brighton and remembering the Mod gathering and scooters then. My youth and view of Brighton is fused with the film and the Mod scene.
The outsider element at the core of the film focuses on young carers who battle caring for love ones, the dynamics of parent and child is upturned causing strain. There efforts go unnoticed by the larger society.”
