The stories they won't touch, from the voices they never backed.
FILMMAKERS. BLACKLISTED BY CLASS. IGNORED BY DESIGN.
We’re not here to beg.
We’re not waiting to be picked.
We’re building something no one else will.Back of the Queue is a platform for working-class filmmakers shut out by the industry’s obsession with optics, box-ticking, and social positioning. We’ve had the doors closed, the scripts ignored, the meetings ghosted.Now we’re making our own.
THE GAME IS RIGGED. SO WE’RE WRITING OUR OWN.
If you’ve been overlooked, blocked or shut down because you didn’t come from the “right background”, this isn’t news to you.Working-class creators - especially white working-class voices, are now the only group it’s acceptable to sideline. The only group without advocates, virtue points, or representation.This platform exists to change that.Not by complaining, but by creating, showcasing, and cutting through.
WE SHOW WORK. NOT CVs.
Back of the Queue exists to showcase working-class talent that gets shut out. Whether you’re a writer with unread scripts, a director with no access, or an actor constantly typecast, this is where we take the work seriously, not the status.Only a handful of projects will be featured at any time.No clutter. No tokenism. Just quality.We connect the overlooked with each other.
If no one will let us in, we build our own space.
NO LECTURES. NO POSERS. JUST REAL ONES.
This isn’t for beginners, bandwagon-jumpers or people playing dress-up.It’s for those who’ve put the work in and still get nowhere. The ones who’ve been mocked for their accent. The ones shut out by class politics and cultural cliques. The ones who don’t tick boxes and never will.If you’ve been at the back of the queue your whole life, it’s time to step forward.
FOUNDED BY FILMMAKERS WHO’VE BEEN BLOCKED FROM DAY ONE.
This was born out of frustration, not fashion.We’re not funded. We’re not connected. But we are dangerous, because we’re done being quiet.The stories we’re building are brutal, brilliant, and unfiltered. And they’re going to be heard, with or without the industry’s help.
“You can’t blacklist a movement.”
Thanks for stepping up.
Now let’s build something the industry can’t ignore.
