This is a tragic coming of age story centering around Layla (Jessica Sula) an immigrant from Trinidad living with her estranged mother (Naomi Ryan) in London. Layla hangs out with the wrong crowd and tries to fit in. She falls for Troy (Lucien Laviscount) who does hip-hop videos and allows Layla to be in them. Troy is not the wonderful man she believes and things take a turn for the worse.
I was confused by the brief opening scene which actually comes near the end of the film.
The film was well acted. However, I didn't find viewing a young girl in a downward spiral overly entertaining. This wasn't my cup of tea, but that shouldn't deter people who like well done teen drama/tragedy.
Guide: F-bomb. Sex. No nudity
