23 HRS AGO - Good luck to local young actor Eddie Linina @edsnocap, who’s been nominated for the prestigious title of ‘Best Actor’ at the British Urban Film Festival Awards! Eddie, 18 years old and a resident of Balham Grove, is up for the award for his first on-screen job (!) - his portrayal of Darren in British drama ‘Stray Dog’.
Darren is a troubled teenager unable to connect with the normal youngsters of his age - he seeks to impress a local gang in a desperate attempt to be accepted leading to devastating consequences.
The award ceremony is this Saturday and Eddie’s looking forward to stepping out onto the red carpet!
When he’s not on stage and screen, Eddie works part time at Fitness First Balham, having recently completed his A Levels at Lambeth Academy. He loves meeting new people and having a chat so be sure to say hi if you spot him out & about!
