Compelling look at a niche gang culture in London

This is an unusual topic for a gang thriller but all the more compelling for it. Tooting Broadway is a complex, dramatic and bloody look at Tamal gang culture in south London, with broader political relevance both in the UK and in Sri Lanka.

Because the action is in London whereas the political unrest comes from a country we never see (Sri Lanka), it can sometimes feel slightly removed from the issue. But with patience the story is rewarding and has many surprising twists and turns.

There are other 'rude boy' films out there about violence and gang culture in London. So if that's all you're after then go see Kidulthood or Ill Manors. This is something different.
