Newport Beach Film Festival 2008

Falaise Johnson has lost her locker key. In the next two hours the rest of her life will be decided because of this. Will she end up as a prostitute on a Barking street corner, a single mother living in a council flat or a psychology student? Similar to “Groundhog Day” and “Run Lola Run”, “Walking Away” depicts Falaise on an odyssey through inner city London, and follows her through a series of encounters with her birth family, foster father, and a dubious boyfriend named Cleveland shape her attitude and her future.
