Indelible Pictures Group presents
Yellow-Tail
One brother built his life by forgetting. The other never learned to look away. When their shared past resurfaces, both discover that silence has a cost.

"One brother built his life by forgetting. The other never learned to look away."
Benji, a London photographer, has built his adult life around forgetting. His brother Oliver has spent the same years consumed by remembering. When circumstances force them back to the place where it all began, their opposing survival strategies collide — and the silence that protected them becomes the thing that threatens to destroy them.
Yellow-Tail asks whether the mechanisms we build to survive our past are more dangerous than the past itself.
Tosin Oshinyemi is a British-Nigerian writer-director and founder of Indelible Pictures Group, a transatlantic production company operating between London and New York. His work explores identity, trauma, and the diaspora experience through a psychological lens, drawing influence from Scorsese and Spike Lee.
Yellow-Tail is part of a diptych with his debut feature FOLIO — currently in development with Geoffrey Fletcher (Academy Award winner, Precious) attached for the rewrite, Michael Winterbottom executive producing, and a November 2026 shoot in Lanzarote.
His previous short Stapleton was an Official Selection at Portobello Film Festival 2019.
Yellow-Tail is one half of a diptych. Where Yellow-Tail explores the fantasy of action, FOLIO examines the reality of refusal.
Benji, a young London photographer, accompanies his girlfriend Cass to her family's island resort for her father's birthday celebration. What begins as an invitation into a world of wealth and beauty turns sinister when Benji recognises predatory behaviour in someone the community protects. Haunted by his own childhood trauma and dismissed by everyone around him, Benji must decide whether to expose the truth or protect himself — knowing that in a system built on complicity, both choices carry a cost.
