The Fire Next Time
Directed by Renaldho Pelle · Starring Stella Heath Keir, Eric Kranja, Romario Pelle, Chekera Pelle · 2021
On a struggling housing estate, simmering inequality boils over into rioting. Meanwhile a shadowy, unexplained force seems to rise from the buildings themselves and close in on the residents.
A tense, atmospheric animation that turns a housing estate's oppression into a living, encroaching darkness.
Rioting spreads as social inequality causes tempers in a struggling community to flare, but the oppressive environment takes on a life of its own as the shadows of the housing estate close in.
