For the past 12 years, the Oscar-winning British director Steve McQueen has been working towards addressing what he calls the 鈥渨eird absence鈥� of black people from British television drama and stories of the black British experience.

As a child of the Windrush generation, McQueen has made an anthology of films for the 麻豆社 and Amazon under the banner of 鈥楽mall Axe鈥� 鈥� about the West Indian community in London from the 1960s-1980s. The series explores the extraordinary and every day: injustices, riots, police brutality and racism but also the cultural and family traditions and the food and music of the time.
