The filmmaking team was comprised to avoid an entirely white, middle-class team presenting stories about black youths: "We went to the market to say, 'What do you want?' They said, 'Our lives are pretty shit and we'd like some escapism.' They thought other films were made about them, not for them. We listened to that and wanted to make something real, something made with them," Mr Taussig added. Nirpal Bhogal, who grew up in East London and who has made the short film, Cold Kiss, will direct. Filming will begin in the summer around the area Mr Bhogal was raised in.
