A NEW INDIE BRITISH COMEDY FEATURE
All The Time In The Pub
We’re looking for your investment!
All The Time In The Pub isn’t just another rom-com. It’s a story about love, mistakes, and the second chances we all wish we had – told through the chaos of one night in a London pub that keeps repeating.
With a very small investment and a lot of dedication, we’ve already brought part of this project to life – along with a brilliant cast and crew, we’ve filmed scenes that show the humour, heart, and originality of the script. Now, with the right support, we can produce this film in the way it deserves: polished, consistent, and ready to connect with audiences everywhere.
