Shadows

Anton Califano | United Kingdom | 2001 | 18' |

| IFFR 2002

Shadows is set in London’s East End, where the story is told of two teenagers, Ryan and Uzunma, who have to battle the racial prejudices evoked by their relationship. The film is the result of a workshop in which students cooperated with the film-makers in the whole film process: script, storyboard, shooting, editing, post-production and promotion. The script was largely based on improvisation.
