AKA

Directed by Duncan Roy

Dean, seeking a new identity in 1970s Britain, enters high society while navigating love and deception, questioning the sacrifices needed to maintain his charade.
AKA is an ambitious British drama about class, identity and deception, told through an unusual split-screen structure. The technique can be demanding, but it gives Duncan Roy’s semi-autobiographical story a distinctive visual identity, while Matthew Leitch brings vulnerability to a character constantly reinventing himself.
