A social investigation into the disproportionate levels of violence and murder suffered by the Black community of Britain. This documentary identifies the failure of the British educational system, the breakdown of family units and consumerism/capitalism as significant contributory factors into this phenomenon. With interviews from gunmen, underground arms dealers, drug users and victims of the violence; the film attempts to define the social environment which conditions and nurtures the desire to consume and destroy.
Having failed to get the film commissioned by the mainstream networks, riceNpeas Films personally financed the making of this documentary. Filmed over six months, the film has been described as the most graphic and disturbing documentary ever made in Britain.
Was it one of those thought provoking/awareness films with no real out come or solution to focus on? Kind of a, ''look whats going on!'' fact film that closes with a depressive note?
The effect of capitalism on a society new to such a way of life is devastating, always has been.
How can real change make progress? Is a question I'd like the answer to.
