Highly Inflammable
Film still from Highly Inflammable by Cheryl White.
Punk sets politics alight in “Highly Inflammable” a fiction feature film in production by Cheryl White.
As teenagers growing up in turbulent 70s Britain, they were best friends. Jenny, the fiery punk yearning to shatter the status quo; Sophia, the dreamy romantic, content in with glossy pages of Jackie magazine. Then the music faded, the boys vanished and the political fervour waned, leaving behind a chasm of silence.
40 years later, in Brexit Britain, Jenny, who once thrived on rebellion and liberation, faces her most daunting decision yet. Should she resurrect her past by reconnecting with her estranged childhood confidant or does she risk reopening the wounds and conflicting interests?
