'Blue is the Colour'

Emerging film director Xaymaca created ‘Blue is the Colour’, a shortform documentary exploring what it means to be Black and a Chelsea fan.

Tying the club’s historic relationship with race to the cultural history of Britain, Xaymaca delved into the story of Chelsea through the lens of ska music, politics and social life from the 1970s to today.

‘Blue is the Colour’, with contributions from Chelsea legends past and present, asserted and affirmed how Black fans and culture have helped define the club’s past and continue to shape its future.

"The beauty of the BCF is that it puts the power in the fans’ hands. We get to have our say because without us nothing moves.

The BCF has encouraged me to look for more opportunities in the creative sector. It's given me the confidence to pursue my interests and collaborate with great teams. It was extremely beneficial to my future career because it has provided me with industry experience."
