Remembering the tragic death of Sophie Lancaster
Written by Matt B · first published 26/11/2009
In August 2007, Sophie Lancaster was kicked to death, simply for dressing differently. Two years on, and in tribute to the outgoing, bubbly girl who was denied the chance to live life her way, cult new British make-up brand Illamasqua has commissioned a short film by award-winning French director, Fursy Teyssier.
Produced by creative agency Propaganda, in association with iconic British band, Portishead, Dark Angel is a beautifully haunting rendition of Sophies story.
The aim of the film is to raise awareness of The Sophie Lancaster Foundation and generate money which will be used to help educate young people about tolerance. There was no sane reason for the murder that night and the impact on people around the world is still being felt.
