A Brixton Tale

Darragh Carey, Bertrand Desrochers
Reino Unido
 - 2021

Leah is a young, affluent YouTuber with filmmaking aspirations, seeking authenticity on the streets of Brixton with her camera. It’s there that she meets Benji: handsome, shy, and a resident of the infamous Barrier Block housing project. Despite the different worlds they inhabit, after capturing him through her lens a connection deepens between them, but their relationship with each other, and with the growing gaze of the camera, leads the pair of them down a dangerous path.
