Debt Meat

Written & directed by Benji Edward
Starring Laya Lewis (Skins)In a nation where human flesh is the only accepted currency, the economy is sacred and mercy is obsolete. When her sister is absorbed into the states system, one woman refuses to accept the arithmetic of sacrifice and sets out to confront the immaculate couple who profit from a machine that never makes mistakes.What unfolds is a dangerous game played over candlelit drinks, where paperwork can kill and power hides behind procedure.Darkly comic and unsettlingly plausible, Debt Meat is a razor-sharp new satire about the terrifying logic of a system that consumes its own.Laya Lewis is best known for playing Liv in the hit E4 teenage Drama Skins , and the title role in the multi-award winning short film Beverley . Recently she appeared as Erias in the Netlfix docu-series Queen Cleapatra.
