BBC Drama ‘Damilola, Our Beloved Boy’ Wins at Inaugural Diversify Awards

October 21, 2017 by Richard Taylor in Uncategorized

A night at MIPCOM dedicated to diversity saw the BBC TV drama Damilola, Our Beloved Boy win for best race and diversity scripted series at the inaugural Diversify TV Excellence Awards on Tuesday in Cannes.

Samira Sorzano, a representative for Banijay Rights, picked up the trophy for Minnow Films, which produced the drama around the true-life murder of a 10-year-old Nigerian boy, Damilola Taylor, in a London tower block stairwell in 2000 and his parent’s journey for justice and deliverance from profound grief.
