No Women No Children
Director: Akporé Uzoh
Year: 2026
The aftermath of a sexual assault (rape). Exploring the deep-felt consequences for all involved. At its heart an epic story of a couple's fight for the survival of their love.
MyMan: An Origin Story
Director: Jamie Swaby, Kenton Jordan Thomas
Year: 2025
A story of how a young man discovers he has superpowers (or a super imagination), using them to evade the grim realities of being a Black teenager amidst a backdrop of knife crime and gang culture. Following the tragic loss of his father, Marcus Miller grapples with identity loss and strives to maintain his former social and academic standing. As more powers emerge, Marcus faces a critical decision: succumb to darkness or honour his father's legacy by embracing heroism. This fantastical narrative intertwines nostalgia, surrealism, teenage turmoil, and nods to comic book lore.
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.
