A young man stares forward, surrounded by darkness, with some passing by distorting one side of his face Fair

Director: Benjamin Turner

Year: 2027

A group of teenage boys become entangled in a series of escalating "games" built around a single rule: don’t flinch. What begins as playful competition gradually shifts into something more controlled, more psychological, and more dangerous. As the boundaries blur, each boy is forced to navigate power, performance, and the pressure to appear unbreakable. FAIR explores how identity is shaped under pressure, and what it takes to hold your ground in a world where showing weakness isn’t an option.

A young female mixed-race director stares with shock and anger at a young Black male actor Sausage Rolls & Jollof Rice

Director: Benjamin Turner

Year: 2026

On a chaotic London film set, tensions simmer between a rising Black actor, a frustrated sound man, and an ambitious young director. Between takes, cultural clashes, class anxieties, and hidden insecurities bubble to the surface - all over a table of sausage rolls and jollof rice. A sharp, darkly comic meta-film exploring identity, tokenism, and the politics of ‘representation’ in the British film industry. As the line between the film-within-the-film and reality begins to blur, each character is forced to confront who really gets to tell their story - and what’s left on the cutting-room floor when ‘diversity’ becomes performance, and identity itself becomes the role.
