A Note Before You Enter
This Story Is Fiction.
The Injustice Was Real.
Foster Cell draws its emotional truth from the life and near-fatal shooting of Sasha Johnson — a Black activist and mother whose story the world deserved to hear. We honour that truth.

What you will find here — the characters, the dialogue, the technology, the conspiracies, the “Foster Cell” itself — is entirely invented for dramatic purposes. Names, institutions, and plotlines are fictional constructs, not factual claims.

This is a work of social commentary. It asks hard questions about power, race, and silence. It does not answer them with facts — it answers them with drama. No connection to any living person, real investigation, or specific organisation should be inferred.
Fictional Work

Foster Cell is a work of dramatised fiction. Emotionally inspired by real events — all characters, dialogue, and plotlines are invented. Not a documentary. Not a factual account.

A Series Built from Passion, Ready for the World Stage

My name is Roger, and I'm the creator of Foster Cell — a TV series and film concept I developed and produced from the ground up. Every scene, every character, every beat of this world came from years of hard work, determination, and an unwavering belief in the story.

Foster Cell isn't just a pitch — it's a fully realised vision, ready to be brought to screen. We are now in active discussion with Channel 4, who have been clear about what they need to move forward:

Channel 4 — Acquisitions Guidance

"If you are developing an international co-production, you must ideally have significant funding already in place before submitting to Channel 4's Head of Acquisitions."

"Channel 4 Drama and Film4 are now working more closely together. We are a home where the best talent can make bold work, in whichever form makes sense for the story. Shameless started life as a feature film at Film4 before becoming one of Drama's greatest hits. We are open to this kind of opportunity."

"Like Film4, Channel 4 Drama is also committed to backing new talent, whether through early career schemes such as 4Screenwriting, or 4Stories, or by backing new writers on their first series."

This is exactly the opportunity Foster Cell represents. The funding raised here goes directly toward production costs, enabling us to walk into Channel 4 with the financial credibility that turns a conversation into a commission.

Any contribution — no matter how small — moves us closer to that moment. And if you're unable to donate, sharing this page with your network would mean just as much.

With gratitude,
Roger  —  Foster Cell
