Steven Treharne, Managing Partner at Mogers Drewett, said “Supporting our region’s continued growth and local talent is something that we’re passionate about and, along with Early Day Films, we’re driven to explore innovative approaches.  The South West is renowned for its creativity and enterprise and we want to see that continue to thrive. The film undoubtedly showcases the exceptional talent of all those involved, and we’re all looking forward to seeing it.”
