CGiii Comment

Just about as heart-breaking as it gets...

Racism - from both sides - a tough subject to deal with in just a few minutes...Nirpal Bhogal's film delivers quite a few knockout punches...

A harsh and [truly] accomplished film.

The(ir) Blurb...

In 90s London, British Asian teenager Jas, deals with a daily barrage of racism by hoping he'll disappear. When he meets a group of older 'Rudeboys', they tell him to stand up for himself and respond to racism with violence, but will Jas heed their advice, even if it means destroying his closest friendship?
