Synopsis

It's just another day at school for West London teenagers Trife, Jay and Moony: beatings in the classroom, sex on the playing field and drugs in the schoolyard. But things are about to flip sharply for this tight trio and their crowd. With school cancelled following the tragic suicide of bullied pupil Katie, the teenagers are all forced to face their own responsibilities and blame for the situations they have got themselves into. Trife is being tempted with fast money, easy women and the gangster lifestyle; while his girlfriend Alisa offers an escape to what she promises will be a better life. Trife must make a choice. But with word spreading that Alisa has slept with someone else, will he make the right one? Along with Jay and Moony, he also has the school bully Sam to contend with. Sam is out for revenge after Jay steals his girlfriend Claire who he has been physically abusing and the trio (Trife, Jay and Moony) humiliate and beat him in his own house. Trife's girlfriend Alisa is also having a bad day. She's just learnt that she's pregnant. But her best friend Becky is only interested in dragging her out on a drug and shopping binge. With the brother of dead Katie set on revenge and everyone heading to the same party, the scene is set for a decisive collision. It's step up or back down time...
