Taking its cue from Romeo and Juliet, LOVE IS THICKER THAN WATER is a tale of lovers from different sides of the tracks. Vida comes from a well heeled London family, whereas Arthur is a bike messenger from a working-class Welsh mining town. Utterly in love, their relationship is nevertheless tested when their wildly different worlds collide. Sensitive, quirky, always uncompromisingly truthful and interspersed with surprising animation, LOVE IS THICKER THAN WATER is a touching take on whether love trumps familial bonds.
