Somewhere announces the UK DVD release of JAYWICK ESCAPES, released on DVD from 16th November.
JAYWICK ESCAPES is a candid portrait of life in the enigmatic seaside town of Jaywick - the unknown, decaying ‘edgeland’ of Essex - just a 90-minute drive from London’s Olympic Park yet as far from its ambition and dreams as it could possibly be.
Officially now England’s most deprived place, Jaywick is the last refuge for many for whom life hasn’t quite worked out - a bargain sea view where you can vanish, at least for a while. JAYWICK ESCAPES sensitively follows a handful of newcomers to the town, revealing their humanity and rejecting more familiar stereotypical portrayals of Britain’s underclass.
