Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Mark Tonderai shot this guerrilla-style on actual motorways with no permits, hiding from police in lay-bys.
The 'Tarman' nickname comes from his tar-covered rig, but critics noted he's also Britain's working class literally blackened by invisible labor. The film's class commentary got buried under genre marketing.
