Speaking on the reactions so far, director Nick Kelly said “We’re absolutely delighted at all the brilliant reviews and media coverage. The biggest thrill for me is the gut response we’re getting from the audiences in the cinemas. Gabriel and Christopher’s friendship seems to be striking a massive emotional chord. The film is getting lots of laughs, but people are also genuinely very moved by it.”
'The Drummer and the Keeper' is distributed by Element Distribution.
