Having been inspired by the Black Film Collective who put together a powerful open letter to Hollywood last week on behalf of many brothers and sisters in the industry, we would like to send you something in collaboration with them, which we feel addresses our continuing issues with the UK industry.

Love to see it

You can read the full letter below, but at its core are four demands: ➡️ Banish your weak excuses ➡️ Empower black and brown independent producers ➡️ Expand your vision ➡️ Be more demanding
