Doidge said: “‘Clout’ is a contemporary fable woven with a cautionary thread, a nostalgic nod to the literature and cinema that captivated my imagination growing up. Our film is poised to prompt audiences to evaluate their own relationship with social media. Immense effort has been dedicated to crafting chemistry amongst the cast,ensuring genuine camaraderie that prioritises real moments over performative focus.Collaborating with Nadine and Anna has been a blessing; they have provided massive support to the boys with care and consideration. Reaching this stage in the journey has been an exhilarating experience.”
