As part of Chokehold's official selection at the BIFA-qualifying Worcester Film Festival, a new feature has recently been published exploring the film's origins, creative development and production. Writer-director Christopher Bevan shares a behind-the-scenes perspective on bringing Chokehold to life and the ideas that shaped its story.

Produced by camakel Productions in association with YSP Media, Chokehold was supported by BFI NETWORK and Film Hub Midlands. We are pleased to feature an extract from the article here so readers can enjoy this insight into the making of the film, with thanks to the Worcester Film Festival team for their continued support.
