kidulthood

A group of West London school kids react in different ways to the suicide of a classmate. Hard-hitting youth drama written by and co-starring Doctor Who's Mickey Smith, Noel Clarke

Director:

• Menhaj Huda

Starring:

• Aml Ameen
• Red Madrell

Featuring bullying, casual sex, hard drug abuse, complete disregard for authority, organized crime and even murder, if ever a film wanted an ASBO more than an Oscar, it's Kidulthood. Wearing its multiracial "messed-up youth" mantra as a badge of honour, this seems - at first glance - to be a deliberate assault on Middle England values.
