After seeing hateful words and actions one time too many, one teenager decides it's HIS turn to express his feelings - ones of good, not bad. He doesn't want to be a stereotype, he's different to everyone else his age. How many do you know who would do something like this?

An idea I had back in January when I was given the task of creating a two-minute short film. Partnering with good friend Shuheb Ullah, this is the culmination of weeks of drafting, writing and thinking.
Basically, the whole point of the film is to show how people can break away from stereotypes. Our star, you'd think, is the typical teenager out to vandalise and cause trouble. By the end of the film, you see he's actually painting a strong picture and getting his feelings out onto the wall.
I always wanted the thing our character portrayed to be an issue with the world. After talking about ideas and abilities with the main actor and graffiti artist Shuheb Ullah, I decided on the one you see in the film. Short, simple but strong. It's still there of course, amongst the hateful and badly designed art of others. Quite the contrast
Even the music is showing the same message. A modern genre with a classical throwback. I hope you enjoy it
