WePresent premieres debut film by British artist and actor Little Simz titled I Love You, I Hate You. The film stars Little Simz (Simbiatu Ajikawo) alongside Shaniqua Okwok (It’s A Sin, Small Axe), C.J. Beckford (Big Age, National Theatre’s Small Island) and newcomer Sonia Ajuwa.
“I Love You, I Hate You is the story of abandonment. How trauma can affect us in our adult lives if never confronted. I wanted to make this film because I feel it’s a universal story that many people can relate to. It’s been incredible to work with a partner like WePresent (the digital arts platform of WeTransfer) who are so invested in telling stories like this. They understood and trusted my vision from the jump and had my back to create the film I set out to make.”
Recently, Little Simz released her album Sometimes I Might Be Introvert which features “I Love You, I Hate You,” the track that inspired the film. Stream the album below.
