A poignant British celebration of friendship, based on true events. Kindling follows a group of young men who return to their hometown to turn their friend Sid’s final summer into a celebration of life, love and friendship.
Facing mortality, Sid (George Somner, Sex Education) wants to create a legacy and be remembered forever. With his obsession for astronomy and the atmosphere, he comes up with a plan to bring everyone together and make this summer unforgettable. He gives each boy a category – love, home, friends, family and location – and asks them to find an item that connects them all with the word they’ve been given.
Also starring Conrad Khan (County Lines), Wilson Mbomio (The Witcher) and Mia McKenna-Bruce (Persuasion)
