Streets of Myth

A live action web-series set in an alternate-universe, contemporary England where every neighbourhood is a fiefdom and every wrong look can end in blood.

At first glance, the Birmingham in Streets of Myth looks a lot like ours. The buildings look about right. The clothes are the same. The kids listen to hip-hop and hard rock. Birmingham's neighbourhoods are roughly the same too: Aston, Digbeth, Nechells, The Jewellery Quarter & more.

But instead of a city, they are a loose collection of gangs and petty rivalries, tied together and policed by the weakened and corrupt forces of The Crown. These gangs aren't quite like our gangs though. They don't have guns.

They have swords, spears and the ancient martial traditions of the Far East. Each neighbourhood has their own power structure, their own laws and their own fighting style.

The Streets of Myth are a place that lies at the intersection of DJ's and dim-maks, kings and graffiti, B-boys and bloodied swords.

 

THE KICKSTARTER OF MYTH IS LIVE RIGHT NOW

The campaign will run for 37 days, ending at 11:59 pm on the 6th of April, and aims to raise £30,000 to fund the production of our pilot episode, "The King's Arms".

The Jewellery Quarter send Elite fighter Jimmy Jenkins to a small pub on the Aston border to broker a deal. Spoiler: It doesn't go well.
