Leah (Lily Newmark) uses her camera to film her everyday life. She falls for Benji (Ola Orebiyi). He's a poor black boy. His white friend Archie is sliding into drug troubles. Leah uses footage of Benji's street life into a film exhibition. The young couple starts pushing the boundaries into more troubling footage.

This indie is a first full length film for directors Darragh Carey and Bertrand Desrochers. I say full length in the most loose way. It's barely 75 minutes. The plot is thin. It doesn't have enough meat on the bone. What it does have is three pretty interesting performers. Lily Newmark is the most experienced and is suited to play quiet intensity looking for trouble. The guys have an interesting chemistry. The script just needs more to exceed its indie limitations.

Just saw this film at the Schlingel International Film Festival. It is well worth checking out! Great performances and the directing/storytelling is captivating! Refreshing to see a story about Brixton, acted by some of the residents of Brixton. Fully authentic!

What I saw was a white girl objectifying a young black man and in her final edit, portrayed him with all the usual racial stereotypes when in fact he had presented himself in quite the opposite way from the beginning of their relationship. Couldn't finish it so there may have been some redeeming ending to the film but after an hour of fairly flat narrative with virtually no dialogue, it was difficult to stay interested.
