Six years ago, filmmaker Randa Maroufi noticed a trend of teenage boys posting photos of themselves holding lethal weapons on social media. She read that police forces were beginning to use the photos as evidence and open investigations into some of the boys. Randa considered the way the photos only showed one moment, one frame of each person’s life. She reckoned some of the boys holding weapons would have done nothing truly worthy of being investigated or arrested.
