Synopsis

In small-town America, a solitary man drifts through life until a group of fearless young creators crash into his world. Ray Panthaki makes his feature directorial debut with a coming-of-middle-age drama, subtly weaving themes of historical colonialism into a modern story of identity, belonging, and unexpected connection. Filmed with a poetic, observational eye, IN STARLAND captures the punk-rock chaos of youthful rebellion colliding with the quiet reckoning of a life half-lived, a tender, sometimes volatile, meditation on chosen family, cultural inheritance, and the connections that can change us in ways we never see coming.

Synopsis

At the age of five, Beldina and her family moved from Kisumu, Kenya to a small town in rural Dumfriesshire, Scotland. As her sister Leah explains “One flight from Nairobi, and Bel became a black person, before she was just a person”. In the 1990s as the only black family in their community, Bel grew up being “othered and marginalised, and questioning her worth”. The effects of this racism had an immeasurable impact on Bel’s mental health and her desire to be seen and heard. In telling Bel’s story, this film exposes the experience of being Black and Scottish. Bel expressed her feelings and thoughts in her obsessive writings and songwriting. This film explores how, despite her incredible gifts, it was still almost impossible for a Black woman to break through. In the past, a diary might form the basis for a biography, however Bel left a phone full of self-shot films and heart-stopping performances. This compelling archive, plus photographs, diaries and notebooks, brings Bel to life - combined with interviews with those who knew Bel best to create an insightful picture of a darkly humoured, supremely talented, troubled but joyous Kenyan-Scottish black woman determined to be heard.
