Brash Young Turks
Synopsis
When Mia, a care-leaver searching for love and escape, is pulled into his orbit, she enters a volatile world defined by hustle, risk, and the pursuit of elevation. Moving through the cut-throat arenas of sales and property, where image is currency and success is measured in money, status, and power, the group chase opportunity at any cost.
But as ambition intensifies, loyalty begins to fracture. What once felt like progress turns unstable, and the personal and material costs of rising become impossible to ignore.
Told through intersecting storylines and a visceral, hyper-kinetic style, the film captures a generation in motion—restless, defiant, and unwilling to accept limitation, no matter the consequences.

Affected
Director: Naeem Mahmood, Ash Mahmood

In the non too distant future, society seems to be devouring itself in a vacuum of materialistic consumer greed manifesting itself in a disease like plague turning ordinary people into savage, zombie like, sub-humans. Jacob, a young aspiring journalist together with his girlfriend Laura, a young attractive self assured, yet vain, it-girl go on the trail of the Tempter, a figure-head in the media reported to be responsible for the decline of the social order. As Jacob's search for a story takes them out of their comfortable, frappucino filled world and into the seedy underbelly of Britain’s backstreets, low lifes and eventually the decaying Eden Estate, cracks begin to appear in their co-dependant relationship driving a rift between them. At a cross-roads fighting for not only his relationship, sanity and survival, Jacob is left with three pivotal questions; Who is The Tempter? Does the Tempter really exist? And if so, is the Tempter truly responsible for the impending armaggedon, or is there a more darker, more sinister, more simple truth to it all?
