Exclusive: XYZ Films is launching world sales on thriller Accused, the next film from UK filmmaker Philip Barantini whose Boiling Point was recently nominated for four BAFTAs including Outstanding British Film.
The Three Little Birds and Sunrise Films production is due to start on February 28 in the UK with XYZ financing and executive-producing.
The film stars Chaneil Kular (Sex Education) and Lauryn Ajufo, BIFA-nominated for her breakout role in Barantini’s Boiling Point.

Pic is being produced by Sara Sehdev and Samantha Beddoe for Three Little Birds, and Rupert Preston and Ed Caffrey for Sunrise Films.
