An upcoming thriller which was filmed and set in the streets of Belfast is coming to Netflix next month.

Directed by Bafta nominated Stephen Fingleton, Nightride is set in the Northern Irish city and features Moe Dunford in the starring role as Budge, a man trying to deal with a dangerous loan shark played by Stephen Rea.

Selected for the Toronto International Film Festival and due to be screened at the Dublin International Film Festival Gala, the movie was shot in the streets of Belfast during the quiet evening hours of lockdown.

Filled with action, Nightride is also billed as a dark humoured movie, with a pumping soundtrack by Belfast DJ and music producer Phil Kieran.

Speaking about the filming process, Northern Ireland born director Fingleton said: “We rehearsed as a crew for one week for 11 hours a day.
