BEACH TOYS (TBC)‍ ‍Short Film BFI Network

Four British lads holiday in southern Italy for their best mates stag. Jonah, the groom-to-be, a successful black man in his 20s, spends the last day of his trip alongside his white friends who are desperate for him to have an "authentic" stag experience - whether he wants to or not. But as Jonah tries to celebrate his "last night of freedom", he finds his dream holiday quickly becomes a nightmare after multiple run-ins with a mysterious African beach vendor.
