FALSE PARADISE

Our new venture sees us work both behind and in front of the camera. Shot on location in Newham and under the back drop of Canary Wharf our most recent online project brings new up and coming actors in front the camera for the first time. 

 

Written by Sylvia Amanquah and Directed by Niyi Towolawi. False Paradise takes a raw and dramatic look at inner-city life and gang culture. It aims to dispel the myths surrounding gangs and create a new narrative. 

​

False Paradise tells the story of Darren, a younger black man battling to create a secure and happy life for his daughter. Trying to leave his troubled past behind him he discovers the challenges of a system that seems to be working against him. His fight to get his daughter takes him close to the edge.
