Step behind the scenes of Urchin with Frank Dillane, who brings Mike - a rough sleeper battling addiction and seeking redemption - to life.
In this exclusive interview, Frank shares how he prepared for the role created by the UK's Harris Dickinson in his directorial debut, from observing posture and movement to exploring the emotional toll of life on the streets.
Backed by BBC Film and the BFI, Urchin is filmed on the streets of East London and blends raw realism, magical touches, and sharp humour to tell a story that asks audiences to feel, empathise, and see the humanity in everyone.
