White Light by Michael van der Put
A kid has a shit day at school, sees a Lamborghini outside his house and thinks, “Why can’t I have that?” White Light is the story of a young white man who is radicalised online. It’s about someone who has genuinely been left behind, who has reasons to be angry; just not the reasons he thinks. It’s about the seductive logic of the far-right, and its consequences offline.
WRITER: Tom Powell | DIRECTOR: Laurence Chater | PRODUCER: Michael van der Put on behalf of Broken Hearted Youth

WRITER, PERFORMER & PERFORMER: Monica Garcia | PRODUCER & PERFORMER: Tani Gill 'Sudeepta.'
