Today, the 26th of November is Sophie Lancaster’s birthday. Maybe you haven’t heard of her and her tragic destiny yet. She was killed two years ago. The reason? She looked „different”, pertaining to the „Goth” subculture. The animated movie presents the moment when she and her boyfriend were attacked.

It is encouraging to see something good coming out of the appalling murder of Sophie Lancaster. 
The September 09 issue of Bizarre magazine has a two page feature in their ‘Proud To be Different’ campaign. This covers Sophie’s case, and the experiences of alternative/goth/Emo kids when travelling. (Yes it really does seem the grass is often greener at home) 
Most importantly there is an interview with Remus Cernea of the Bucharest Humanist Association. They have helped launch the Black Cat Campaign, which opposes discrimination against alternative people in Romania. 
Excellent work!
