Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
A young boy poses as a street-hardened gangster in order to impress his older brother, putting them both on a treacherous path that could destroy their family in this gritty urban drama. Mo (Fady Elsayed) is an isolated 14-year-old boy who longs to be accepted by his peers. His older brother Rashid (James Floyd) runs with a local gang and earns enough money to support their family. In Mo's eyes, there's nobody cooler than "Rash," and in a desperate bid to prove his manhood, the sensitive younger sibling accepts a dangerous job. Unfortunately, his actions will have unforeseen consequences that could ruin both brothers' lives.
