CONGRATULATIONS to my old friend Justin Edgar whose film Special People has won the audience award at the Britspotting Festival in Berlin.

I'll dig out an archive interview with the inspirational boy wonder later this week to help put him in the spotlight - and to show you just how far he has travelled from humble origins in Sutton Coldfield.

People who moan about a lack of opportunities should read Justin's story and get off their butts.

Expanded from an original short film, Special People tells the story of four kids in wheelchairs and an idiot film maker on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

It stars Dominic Coleman, Sasha Hardway, Robyn Frampton, David Proud and Jason Maza and came fourth in the Audience Appreciation chart when it premiered at last year's Edinburgh International Film Festival.
 
The film will be released in the UK in Summer 2008 by Guerilla Films.
