“Stay Down”

Workplace classism is a genuine horror. So we decided to make a horror film about it. As you do. Trailer played in cinemas across the UK, and we had a premiere at the iconic Roundhouse in London for the short film - attended by key figures in media, creative industries, politics and activism.

Terrifyingly, people born working-class are STILL being held down in their jobs due to classism. Employers are even paying them up to £6k less per year than their middle-class peers - in the same roles, with the same experience - just because of their background. It's scarily prevalent, and the ongoing war on the working-class in Britain isn't making it any less scary.
