'SOLITARY' is a contained feature length sci-fi film about a man who wakes up inside a room to discover he's a prisoner sent into space to form Earth's first colony, and worse - his cell mate Alana is hell bent on destroying everything.
UK / INTERNATIONAL TRAILER
US TRAILER
Solitary was the debut feature film of both Inspired pictures and writer/director Luke Armstrong. It was produced by both Johnny Sachon and Armstrong.
Shot in just 12 days on a modest budget, with post-production largely completed by Armstrong alone during the coronavirus lockdown during early 2020. The film serves to show what can be achieved within constraints and sets the backdrop for future film and television projects from Inspired Pictures Limited. The Solitary screenplay has since been incorporated into the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences Core Collection at the Margaret Herrick Library.
Solitary is being distributed in the UK by High Fliers films, and in the US by Vertical Entertainment on digital, disc in all major retailers and a limited theatrical run. To date it has been distributed around the world in the UK, USA, Canada, Germany, France, Spain, Netherlands, Australia, India, Brazil, Russia, South Korea.

“What is most impressive about Solitary … is the difficult circumstances it was made in, which mirror the set-up of its two protagonists.” — NME
“Solitary pushes the boundaries within a modest budget, proving that with great skill and determination, any idea can be made a reality. From the Hollywood inspired visuals to the fantastic minuscule cast, Armstrong’s ability is incredible, writing and directing a small scale narrative with finesse, contained like your favourite bottle episodes of Star Trek.” — UK FILM REVIEW
“Solitary is worth a recommendation on its excellent story, accomplished special effects, and stellar performances from the lead actors. It’s an honest attempt to make a good sci-fi film and fulfills that task. It has interesting things to say about our future and the human condition.” — FILM THREAT
