Losing an instrument is like losing a limb, right? If it’s what binds you to home. ‘Strung Out’ follows a group of friends on a mission to find the missing piece of the puzzle, but hitting hurdle after hurdle, will the group remain intact?

Made at the start of the Covid pandemic when people were confined to their flats and houses, the company pulls together to tell a story of community and friendship, self-filmed on phones and over Zoom.
