Trust Me Fourmost Films
Trust Me - out now!
Backed by top stars for promoting safe sex!

Fourmost Films was featured on ITV after it's collaboration with local young people to script and produce Trust Me, a short film exploring health and relationship issues amongst young people. The special DVD pack also contains a CD Soundtrack produced by Joe Buhdha and features Sean Paul, Sway and Kano.

15-year-old Randy Washington from Sherwood, who acted in the film said: “it really inspired me, now I hope I can go on to be a professional actor.”

Councillor Mellen, Nottingham City Council’s Portfolio Holder for Children’s Services, said:
“The young people’s experiences shaped the plot, script and developed the characters, so the film gives a realistic and interesting insight into how irresponsible sexual behaviour has consequences.”

The initiative is backed by the Youth Opportunity Fund, Mediabox and is available on DVD and CD by request.
