Anthony (2020x10)

Air date: Jul 27, 2020

In July 2005, black teenager Anthony Walker was murdered by two white men in an unprovoked racist attack in a Liverpool park. He was just 18 years old. This film tells the story of how this talented young man's life might have turned out. Written by BAFTA-winning screenwriter Jimmy McGovern, Anthony's imagined life is told in reverse chronology as we see him realise his dreams and enjoy the life he had a right to live before fate -- and hate -- take it all away.
