Amidst political turmoil on a Caribbean island, the first assistant director is determined to see his film through – if the chaos doesn’t consume them first. Between managing an impossible lead actor, navigating power struggles on and off set, and a crew member vanishing under mysterious circumstances, the production is at risk of falling apart. Blending sharp dialogue, rich behind-the-scenes detail, and the grit of a top-notch crew, All Wrapped Up is a compelling portrait of non-blockbuster filmmaking under fire – where the real battle isn’t just on screen.
Informed by his years of experience in film and television, Larry Lamb gives an inside look at the industry; the trials, tribulations, and hard won successes of producing a piece of cinema.
“Larry Lamb is a storyteller like no other. Some of my fondest memories of being on the set of Gavin and Stacey were listening to Larry tell incredible stories.” — James Corden.
“Hooray, at last, an insight into the unsung hero, at the helm of making filming magic. This intriguing story illuminates the tightrope day-to-day tasks of a 1st assistant director and the crew, on and off a film set – that has never been touched on before. Mr Lamb pulls no punches. It is speedy, sexy and amusingly truthful. I loved it.” — Celia Imrie.
