The Loop

Auteur Lorcan Hopper is a proud disabled man who will stop at nothing to see his semi-autobiographical soap opera brought to life. The Loop is an absurd journey into disability, authorship and representation. First-time television director Lorcan Hopper partners with emerging filmmaker Johanis Lyons-Reid to twist the world of soap operas and share Lorcan’s experience of disability. But with a documentary team filming Lorcan’s every move, can the cast and crew match the intensity and professionalism he demands? Heartfelt, hilarious, and always unexpected, The Loop is soap opera like you’ve never seen it.
