Junglez
JungleZ is a short film that follows a ragtag group of black LGBT youths who live in a secret squat on a rough estate in Brixton, London. Here they hide from the bullies, drag up, take drugs and daydream - two of them hoping that one day they will be grime stars, like UK duo Krept & Konan, or the UK version of Outcast. But they are gay, poor, outsiders, and know they will never be accepted by the mainstream. With their crew they hatch a plan, and against all odds are determined to perform. Will they succeed? You’ll have to read the script to find out!
JungleZ raises issues – race, class, sexuality, mental illness, drugs – but in a high-energy, often hilarious way.
