Penny Woolcock is one of the leading directors in the UK film industry who has established a reputation for herself in tackling tough subjects. Her latest daring feature, 1 Day, a 'hip hop and grime musical', is set amidst the gangs of Birmingham and follows a day in the life of an inner city hustler. Police in the city advised cinemas against the film and it was pulled at the last minute. Lizzie Thynne interviews Woolcock about directing the movie and how her earlier work in innovative drama-documentary fed into her feature career.
