Plot

On the hottest day of a sweltering London summer, Steve Lynch must repay a £1,000,000 loan by 5pm, or lose everything he has ever worked for. An outrageous wager offers him a solution: run from North to South West London in less than two hours. But the events and people he encounters along the way will change his life forever.

Background

Moving Target is set in London on a bank holiday that also happens to be the hottest day of the year (in real life usually in late July or early August). The film was partly inspired by the summer of 2003, which had record-breaking sunshine.
