Synopsis

An award-winning slice-of-life drama set on some of the meaner streets of west London, Kidulthood pulls no punches in its depiction of alienated youth - and certainly provides fuel for thought regarding the pressures facing today's teens. When a bullied girl takes her own life, her classmates are given the day off school for reflection - but what follows instead is a binge of anti-social and self-destructive behaviour that brings them all to crisis point.
