His unique collections, many featuring daggers, skulls and thorns, gained him global notoriety in the 1990s when they were first seen on Hollywood and music A-Listers and led to him being labeled the Rock 'n' Roll Jeweler. Since then his highly desirable and distinctive designs have adorned the bodies of some of the world's most glamorous individuals including Madonna, Elizabeth Taylor, Jennifer Lopez, Brad Pitt, Charlize Theron and Cameron Diaz. A home-grown talent Stephen was a normal kid living in a three bed semi at the edge of the motorway in Gravesend. It was his dreams that made him into a British success story to be proud of. 2006 was his 30th year in business as a fine jeweler and this year he became the creative director at Garrard the oldest jewelers in Britain.

- The story of albinism in East Africa has been dominated by the one-sided approach of vulnerability, discrimination, stigma and exclusion. These people have only been described as victims, unable to influence their own lives, driven here and there by authorities at national, regional and local levels. It is time to change the narrative and instead spread stories that show the opposite, that there are actually people with albinism who have passed through school against all odds, they have overcome obstacles, they have families who support and love them, they have created themselves a good life. They are role models that can arouse hope, which light a spark in many of the children and young people who today live their lives imprisoned in sheltered schools where they rarely or never get the opportunity to meet their families again. These children and young people deserve to see what opportunities can actually await them in adulthood. This film will open a platform to marginalized group of people to have a discussion and understanding their role in the community despite their conditions. It is very difficult for persons with albinism (PWA) to have a voice in the Tanzanian society, since they in many situations are not listened to, facing discrimination and marginalization from early ages. The film is representing the voices and faces of of these people, proving to the outside world that they are a voice that will contribute to the development of a democratic society. The interviews has been done all over Tanzania, and during the roadtrip the film team stopped here and there to talk to ordinary people in the streets, about their views on people with albinism.
