DN LFF2014: Ping Pong Summer - Michael Tully

We complete our interview series from the 58th BFI London Film Festival with a film that brings together the rad moves of table tennis with the break beat brilliance of Hip Hop. Set in 1985, Michael Tully's Ping Pong Summer features a girl to romance, a bully to be bested, a friendship forged in the fires of adversity and of course, a mystical mentor to show the way; all the elements needed for a film which doesn�t simply pastiche the 80s movie but is itself an 80s movie - albeit made in 2014. We caught up with Tully to get the full funky fresh lowdown.
