This is England
Shane Meadows‘ fifth full-length feature, This is England tells the story of Shaun, an 11-year-old kid growing up without a father in the north of England.
Set during the summer holidays of 1983, the film charts his rites of passage from shaggy haired ruffian grieving the loss of his father, into a shaven headed thug who’s anger and pain are embraced by the local skinhead fraternity and ultimately the National Front.
With a shell for a mother and no father to guide him, Shaun seems set for certain destruction.
