À propos de ce film

A story about two Arab brothers living in the dismal London borough of Hackney. Sensitive fourteen-year-old Mo idolizes his nineteen-year-old brother Rashid who is able to support the family as a shrewd businessman and member of a gang of drug dealers. Rashid hopes that his younger brother Mo will choose a different path in life. When a rival gang kills his best friend, Rashid begins to ask himself about the life he is leading. When Rashid's gang notice this change in one of their own they become suspicious. Feeling betrayed by Rashid, Mo soon becomes delinquent, and his whole world collapses when he discovers that his adored brother is gay. In order to protect himself and Rashid, Mo claims Rashid and Sayyid are involved in a jihad's plot. Mo will have to face his own prejudices if he wants to save his brother's life. Authentic, fast-paced and atmospheric is a coming-of-age story about the love between two brothers who must find themselves and their own way in life.
