Synopsis

You might not like Danny Balint - in fact, you might despise him. But a couple of details about him might surprise you. He's a young American skinhead whose embrace of the ugly creed of neo-Nazism conceals two things - firstly, that he's highly intelligent, and secondly, and even more shockingly, that he's Jewish. Despite his own ancestry, the obsessive and angry Danny has latched onto racism as a way to make sense of the world - and the powerful Believer follows him as he tries to reconcile his prejudice and hatred with being the actual object of that hatred. With an amazing performance from Ryan Gosling as Danny, this is a fierce and unforgettable movie.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."

- Marlon Perkins, Teacher, Whitstable and Seasalter Endowed CofE Junior School, Kent
