Director: David Noel Bourke.
Writer: David Noel Bourke.
A film from Danish filmmaker David Noel Bourke (Last Exit) "No Right Turn" is a fairytale journey, for viewers, seen through the eyes of coke junkie Johnny (Tao Hildebrand) and scheming wife Nina (Laura Bach). Shot throughout Copenhagen this brightly lit ninety-one minute psychological drama shows not only the director's talent, but those of the actors who come believably in this second film from Bourke.
The story involves Johnny suspecting infidelity in his wife Nina after discussions with his English accented drug-dealer Pedro (Sami Darr), of Nina's past behaviour. Johnny dealing with a deviated septum through out of control coke use spins in and out of reality while Nina plans to rob her husband with help from heroine and new confidant Monella (Sira Stampe). However, the cliche that thieves have no honour is taken to bizarre depths when Nina has a brief...

Hi David, tell us a little about yourself.
My name is David Noel Bourke, an independent filmmaker. I grew up in Ireland and studied acting and writing but eventually drifted into spec screenwriting. Feeling a little frustrated moved to Australia and took up drama and creative writing for a few years, tried to do a little acting, didn’t work out, so came back to Europe and settled in Denmark with my wife Catrina, we now are married and have two kids and try to eke out some sort of living making independent films!
You’re based in Demark, but No Right Turn, to a certain extent, feels like it could be set in any northern hemisphere nation . Was it your intent to deliberately not tie the film too heavily to any specific geographic location?
It must be all the snow in the movie that lends a northern hemisphere vibe,...

In neon lit town settled amogst snowy tundra the lives of four lost souls collide. As each tries to escape who and where they are, events take an unexpected and ultimately mysterious turn.
No Right Turn revolves for the most part around 4 main characters. At the heart of the tale is Johnny the cokehead, whose noses can't take anymore and his Wife struggling actress Nina. Both of them have dealing with the oddball train obsessed Teddy (who reminds me of a young Michael Palin), Johnny deals him coke and Nina has something else for him. The fourth character is the morbid Monella who saves Nina from a sexual assault and is then befriended by her. However is the streetwise Nina to strong a personality and is Monella as naive as she seems. Can Johnny finally strike it big and how exactly does Teddy fit into the scheme of things?
