## Summary

Tony Kaye will direct a five-minute short film set among Leicester’s giant monster sculptures, using documentary and reality-drama elements to explore how people can understand and love one another across their differences. The project brings the British director together with emerging performers and filmmakers from De Montfort University and Leicester’s creative community, placing the city’s diversity and public art at the centre of the story.

Produced by Hiu Man Chan, the film will be shaped around its cast and participants, with cameras capturing chance encounters and real experiences; filming is due to begin on Friday. The sculptures are part of Leicester Monsters, a city-centre programme intended to draw visitors into public spaces. Kaye said the title recalls a 40-year-old advert he made featuring a dog, cat and mouse, while his earlier films include “American History X” and “Detachment”.
