Biography

Benjamin Turner is an award-winning filmmaker, writer, and educator whose bold, unflinching storytelling has been recognised at BAFTA-qualifying festivals. His short films - including 'The Nudes (2024)' and 'Help! I Think My Teacher is Racist... (2024)' - are noted for their fearless explorations of race, power, and youth identity, blending dark humour, heightened realism, and raw performances.

'Get Back Season' (in post-production) marks his debut feature - a genre-bending youth thriller set in a London school, expanding his trademark exploration of power, trauma, and identity onto a larger canvas.

As Executive Director of Spit Game, Turner has built a groundbreaking platform that develops emerging talent while producing boundary-pushing films. He also leads Rap Club Productions C.I.C., transforming classrooms through rap education and mentoring the next generation of creatives.

With Spit Game working across music and talent development alongside filmmaking, Turner stands at the forefront of youth-led British cinema, creating urgent and authentic stories that redefine the cultural landscape.
