About Hated by Default
In August 2024, British-Bangladeshi actor and filmmaker Islah Abdur-Rahman was working on a short film, when riots stemming from the Southport incident fell on the same day as his shoot, deeply affecting him and many of his crew. In response to the riots, he created another short film titled 'Go Back To Your Country', a fictional drama against the backdrop of these riots. 'Hated By Default' explores Islah's deep history with racism and Islamophobic behaviour in Britain, and how he uses his creative sword to fight against injustice, even when it seems like a losing battle.
Directed by Shadman Kabir, Hated by Default leans on a strong ensemble — Islah Abdur-Rahman — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 2025.
