"The story was born of my own battles with gender identity, a need to discover the truth within myself and fully embrace myself as a non-binary individual... “I wanted to see my community reflected on screen, which is something I never saw growing up.

Both are psychopaths but display their psychopathy in very different ways. THE METHODISTS is set in the modern-day Midlands and will have British 80’s music throughout, giving it a very strong feel.
The plot: the film starts with Harvey and Winks,the two hitmen who have been simply sent to collect a debt and give a guy a slap – but Winks in his lust for violence and his poor eyesight shoots the wrong person which just so happens to be the last remaining son of a powerful family firm, run by the psychotic ‘Mrs Morgan’. This sets off a series of events involving, fight scenes, interspersed with dark British humour, filled with very strong characters and soon to be iconic British scenes. The whole film will be shot mainly in Leicester.
