LSFF: New Shorts: My Masks

We all wear masks, and the time comes when we cannot remove them without removing some of our own skin.

The masks we build ourselves prove essential in these stories of school bullying, macho posturing and online bravado, with more complex defenses coming to light in a 1960s women's space programme (The Purple Plain) and the secret life of playwright Joe Orton. Also watch out for Jodie Whittaker (Doctor Who, Broadchurch) and Ashley Walters (Bullet Boy, Top Boy) in Untitled.
