    • Synopsis
    • Joshua Nyaga travels to the countryside from London to spend a summer’s weekend with his girlfriend Cass’s family for the first time. Transplanted as a young boy from the violence of the Ugandan civil war to the concrete jungle of London, Joshua has never experienced the privilege that Cass’s family enjoys.

      Surrounded by the sea and lush natural landscape, the farm is an oasis, brimming with idealistic notions and
      lively debate amongst Cass’s father, stepmother, and their long-time friend of the family, Michael. But Joshua’s warm welcome is short-lived, when a sudden act of violent racism at the local summer concert shatters the peace forcing Joshua and those around him to confront the uncomfortable truth of their differences.

      A searing portrait of contemporary British society, THE BEACON is a meditation on family, class, race,
      belonging, and identity. This is a story that holds a mirror up to its audience, questioning what our values are, what we will do to stand up for them and what secrets we harbor even from those we love the most.
