About this movie

For 15-year-old Trife, life is a day-to-day struggle. Trapped between the worlds of his school friends, the girl he loves and the draw of his powerful and dangerous uncle, Trife must choose between the path he knows is right and a life of guns, drugs and violence that he has come to know only too well. When a classmate's suicide leaves Trife and his crew, Moony and Jay, with the day off school, the tragedy seems overshadowed by the opportunity to shop, get high, get laid and party - but in a world where sex is currency, drugs are easy, and violence is a way of life, trouble can never be too far around the corner. On these streets kids grow up fast... and 48 hours... can be a lifetime.

A very raw, honest raw piece of british film that shows the gritty side of life that some people in the UK are faced with. Gang culture, violence, drugs, glorified misognyism promoting violence and the need to always fight back are the main points of this dark film, a brilliant watch.

Real, honest and brutal. Shows just what London life is really like in deprived areas for people & kids left on the scrap heap who society doesn't care about & would prefer to forget.
