I Came By

In the bustling streets of London, a city where wealth and poverty coexist, a young graffiti artist known only by his alias "Turf" (played by George MacKay) makes a name for himself with his bold and daring street art. Turf's work targets the opulent homes of the wealthy elite, sending a powerful message about the inequalities of society. As Turf navigates the gray areas of the law, always staying one step ahead of the authorities, he becomes a celebrated figure among his peers in the art world. However, his actions haven't gone unnoticed by everyone. A group of high-end homeowners, who have been targeted by Turf's vibrant murals, hire a team of private investigators to track down the elusive artist. Their efforts lead them to a group of street artists operating in an abandoned warehouse, known as the "Factory" - a hub for creatives to express themselves without being bound by societal norms. Among the group is a woman named "Harp" (played by Malachi Kirby), an artist with a talent that surpasses Turf's. The two quickly become involved in a romantic relationship, adding a new dynamic to Turf's already complicated life. As Turf's notoriety grows, so does the danger surrounding him. His home is now a target for the private investigators, who are relentless in their pursuit. A narrow escape from one of their team members prompts Turf to re-evaluate his life as an artist. Feeling trapped by the pressures of being a public figure and fearful of being caught, Turf starts to reassess his stance on the world around him. While Turf grapples with his conscience, he stumbles upon an unsettling truth that will force him to look deeper into the lives of those he has previously targeted. He discovers a dark and twisted secret involving child labor and the exploitation of young workers within the wealthy households he previously vandalized. This revelation opens Turf's eyes to a reality that challenges his perceptions of the world. No longer content to simply express himself through art, Turf feels an overwhelming sense of responsibility to confront those involved in this heinous scheme. Determined to expose the truth, Turf begins to dig deeper into the inner workings of the wealthy elite, navigating a complex web of deceit and corruption. As he delves deeper, his relationships with those closest to him become increasingly complicated. Turf's relationship with Harp is put to the test as the danger escalates around them. He must now decide between his desire for anonymity and his newfound determination to bring about change. With his actions becoming more overtly rebellious and provocative, Turf attracts the attention of an enigmatic figure known as "The Benefactor" (played by Hugh Bonneville), a man with ties to the wealthy elite and a hidden agenda of his own. Turf's search for truth and justice puts him at odds with those in power, making him a marked man in a world where secrets and lies are currency. As Turf's quest for truth intensifies, his world becomes a treacherous landscape where loyalty is tested and survival hangs in the balance.
