Synopsis


Star Man tells the story of a young man, Ben (Jack Matthew), battling to overcome the hold of a drug addiction, while a ghost from his past seeks to destroy his future.

Background, advisory warnings


Age suitability: 18+


The online streaming of Star Man is in support of akt, formerly known as the Albert Kennedy Trust.


As a charity tackling LGBTQ+ youth homelessness, akt saw a substantial spike in young people seeking help, as national lockdowns increased the numbers of those fleeing dangerous domestic situations, facing unemployment, rent arrears and financial instability.


50% of the profits from Star Man will go to akt to fund their critical work.
