Walking Off Court

The film follows James Goodman, a tennis coach whose life is disrupted by the construction of a motorway near his home. His story is captured through Barber's lens, focusing on his aimless wandering around the roads and construction sites.

George Barber, as the top cast member, brings a personal touch to this narrative, having interacted with Goodman and even played tennis with him. The film stands out for its honest portrayal of mental health and the impact of environmental changes on personal well-being. This work may resonate with those interested in the intersection of sport, mental health, and place.
