Rocks director Sarah Gavron on After Life.

With Francine Stock

In this month's edition of Moving Image, director Sarah Gavron talks about the unlikely film that influenced Rocks, her realistic drama about the life of a teenager in East London. The film is After Life, a Japanese fantasy about the recently deceased having to choose a memory that will be re-enacted and filmed, which they then can take to the afterlife with them. Gavron explains why Hirokazu Koreeda's award-winning movie is a source of constant inspiration.
