Fakers is a 2004 British crime film directed by Richard Janes and starring Matthew Rhys as con-man with a big debt to pay off to wanna-be crime lord played by Art Malik. It was produced by Richard Janes, Claire Bee and Todd Kleparski, with independent funding and costing $1,500,000 to make.
The film was released in United Kingdom in November 2004.[1]
Set in the eccentric London art world, the film's protagonist Nick Edwards (Rhys) owes £50,000 to the smooth and brutal crime lord Foster Wright (Malik) and has four days to find the cash. Nick knows nothing about working a heist of that size, but when he stumbles across a lost sketch by the legendary Italian artist Antonio Fraccini, he hatches a plan with the help of cynical Eve (Ashfield) and her extremely talented yet naïve artist brother Tony (Chambers): to forge the drawing and sell it to five Mayfair galleries within an hour before anyone catches onto the scam.
