Ballyman
Ballyman is a short film by Faruq Adigun.
Ballyman is a short film by Faruq Adigun exploring the parallels between psychosis and spirituality, co-directed and co-produced with Artistic Director Roisin Feeny & VIDEOfeet.
Ballyman follows Deji, a young Black man from South East London, as he traverses through the city hiding behind his (bally) balaclava. As his mental state declines, he is forced to shield away from the world, stepping onto his new path of enlightenment.
