BELONGING
Short 20’

When your family don't want to know, there has to be somewhere you belong.
Dark, gritty, urban drama, which never shies away from the truth of life on a deprived South London sink estate. Written in teenage slang and patois, with a soundtrack provided by upcoming UK rap artists, this film is about the dark world that many of today's teenagers inhabit. A world where disenfranchised youths search for belonging and sometimes the only place they can find it is in a gang.
