Typical of the ‘just do it’ approach to filmmaking, Le Donk & Scor-zay-zee is an improvised comedy, shot over five days by Shane Meadows, devised with and starring Paddy Considine. Rock roadie and failed musician, Le Donk has lived, loved and learned the hard way. Along the way he’s lost a girlfriend and his life has turned to shit, but he has found a new sidekick in Nottingham rap prodigy Scor-zay-zee (playing himself). With Meadows’ fly-on-the-wall crew in tow, Donk sets out to make Scor-zay-zee (and himself) a star, with just a little help from the Arctic Monkeys. Made on a tiny budget, Le Donk is daft, funny and full of heart.
