Overview
Manny
By Emmanuel Simon
Despite the ubiquity of social media, we still live in an anti-social society, how many times can you handle rejection alone before it starts to take its toll on you? Manny is about a young working-class man fighting a mental and physical battle for mainstream success in an unwelcoming, unfriendly town but certain enemies and a chain of events try to halt his progress, how will he react?
The Lost Ones
By Amina Koroma
The Lost Ones presents the story of two young women, stolen from home, who find themselves amongst the many who are crossing the middle passage during the transatlantic slave trade. It explores their lives under captivity, individual crises of faith and identity and the relationship they build as a means of safety, camaraderie and a sense of home that they were uprooted from.
