YOU'LL FIND MY UNCLE @ BUTE STREET

UNCLE is based on the true story of a man murdered while in government custody. (The officers involved in the killing were never criminally charged nor suffered any disciplinary repercussions, leaving the surviving family members without justice or closure.)
▫️
Set in ‘90s London, this short film, written and directed by Michelle Jones, shares the perspective of a teenage girl as she learns of her uncle’s passing, and we watch as an “emotional roller-coaster” unfolds on the day of his funeral.
▫️
We’re pleased to announce that UNCLE was selected to screen at the 9th annual BUTE STREET FILM & ART FESTIVAL, which is taking place April 13-15, 2023 , in Luton (Bedfordshire, England). To learn more, please visit: https://www.butestreetfilmfestival.com/

We extend our thanks to all at BUTE STREET and congratulate our cast and crew. (Their Instagram tags follow.)
