Funded by british film instititute
funded by bfi to make a film in america with american title
share...by a British director/producer. That's the key.
Funding was also in relation to Film 4 UK.
Subject matter is neither here nor there; it's having a good script that gets funding, no matter where the film is based.
Fair enough, but often these films are based in the UK. As you state, Film 4 also provided funding so maybe that's what allowed it to be set in the USA
