Acclaimed British director Shane Meadow's (Dead Man's Shoes This is England) assured debut feature is a tale of petty crime in the suburbs of Nottingham which stars Meadows himself as Jumbo leader of a ragtag band of small time crooks. Featuring energetic handheld camera work brilliant comic dialogue and a host of ironic film references Small Time clearly reveals Meadow's flair for larger-than-life characters and ability to extract accomplished semi-improvised performances from talented non-professionals.

Low-budget comedy drama made by British director Shane Meadows at the outset of his career. Filmed on a Nottingham council estate in the mid-1990s, the film follows the ups and downs of a group of friends as they scrape a living from ducking, diving and stealing anything that comes to hand. Also included is the 1996 short 'Where's the Money Ronnie!', the gritty 12-minute comedy in which Meadows introduced the ideas and characters that would later be developed in 'Small Time' and his later film 'Once Upon a Time in the Midlands' (2002).
