Living alone in her London flat following the death of her mother, 12-year-old Georgie must confront reality when her estranged father, Jason, shows up out of nowhere. Uninterested in a sudden new parental figure, she remains stubbornly resistant to his efforts. Scrapper is about resilience, as the title says, but it’s resilience of a certain kind—it’s makeshift and messy. The resilience in Scrapper is a type of lived creativity, an imaginative space where Georgie and her father make up their own rules and their own world. 2023 Sundance Film Festival Award.
