"Brixton Is My Mother Tongue" is not just a film β itβs a cultural movement in cinematic form.
It tells the intimate, universal story of Malik Thompson β a Jamaican-British millennial reclaiming his voice after generations of silence β through the unsent letters of his Windrush-generation grandmother, Esther.
This project sits at the intersection of:
Cultural urgency (Windrush legacy, identity, belonging)
Market demand (underserved Black British narratives)
Commercial viability (festival appeal, broadcast potential, impact-driven IP)
Social return (education, healing, representation).
