Pete Sweet - (High Quality)

Noel Fielding plays Pete Sweet, who works on a record stall, owns a scooter and two puppies, has a best friend called Stitch (played by Julian Barratt) and is currently dating a short, dumpy ginger girl called Poppy. Who is imaginary. She was originally imagined by Pete's mate's Dave's Mum, who had always wanted a girl. Does that explain it for you? The strain of this unusual relationship soon begins to take a toll on Pete and Stitch's friendship, and the film centres around this complicated triangle, and the ethical debate surrounding the etiquette of dating an imaginary girl.

This film was chosen to be part of the BBC Summer of British Film (shorts).
