Synopsis

Jamie and Jody are identical twin brothers. They not only share their appearance, they also share Candy - Jody's high-school sweetheart. Another thing the twins share is a passion for killing; their preference being high-school students - 'people closer to our own age.'
 
Jamie dreams up innovative ways to market himself and his brother to the media. However he is quick to learn that they need a reason for their extracurricular activities. Enter Vincent Fox (Hollywood action star). Who better to blame? Who better to kill?
 
After a number of killings, Kristina (Candy's confidante) gets suspicious; as a result the twins kill Kristina rather unceremoniously. Candy decides to pay her boyfriends a visit, only to witness the twins decapitating her best friend. Jamie and Jody kidnap Vincent Fox and take him to a high-school party. The police show up, as does the media, and so Jamie demands that a news crew documents the last moments of Vincent Fox's short life. The rules are pretty simple - 'we're going to kill Vincent Fox live on TV!'

Synopsis

This debut feature film, written, choreographed and directed by its leading man, the black dancer Rodrequez King-Dorset, shows a creative dance artist in the grip of a personal crisis.
The film depicts the black ghetto lives of two black boys in England in the 1980s, one a newly arrived African, the other an Afro-Caribbean, and highlights the ethnic tensions between their respective groups. The young black Briton, Lewis, (Troy John plays him as a boy) has to face scorn and misunderstanding from his father when he tries to become a professional dancer. Lewis has a close friendship with the African, Ramsey, (Andante Ajinzea) and a rewarding relationship with an Afro-Caribbean girl friend Maudi, (Naomi James). His African friend is imprisoned for a killing he was forced into in sheer self-defence, and this only adds to Lewis' confusion. He sets out creating a solo dance, which embodies some of his emotions.
 The film has a predominantly black cast and was financed on a shoestring budget, largely as a result of the dedicated enthusiasm of all concerned in its making.
