Based on the true story of the death of Zahid Mubarek (Aymen Hamdouchi), a first time offender who was beaten to death by fellow inmate Robert Stewart (Leeshon Alexander). We Are Monster is a fearless look at the culture of racism and ineptitude that led to Mubarek s tragic murder, and a chillingly intense look at Stewart s fractured psyche. Raw and powerful filmmaking, underpinned by Alexander s stunning performance, that strips down and challenges issues on racial tension, hatred and youth violence.

British drama based on the real-life murder of Zahid Mubarek inside a young offenders institute in March 2000. Six weeks before he was due to be released from Feltham Young Offenders Institute, Zahid Mubarek (Aymen Hamdouchi), who was of Asian descent, was allocated a new cellmate - Robert Stewart (Leeshon Alexander), a vicious racist. Stewart's strange and aggressive behaviour unsettled Mubarek, but his request to be moved to a different cell was denied. Only a few hours before he would have been released, Mubarek was violently attacked by Stewart and later died of his injuries.
