Strangeways Here We Come

In a darkly comedic tale of rebellion, a group of residents on a council estate band together to take down a ruthless loan shark who has been terrorizing their lives. Based on the writer-director Chris Green's own experiences growing up in a troubled neighborhood, "Strangeways Here We Come" is a visceral and unflinching portrayal of life on the tough side of town. Filmed on location in Salford, this action-comedy blends humor and urgency to deliver a punchy, if imperfect, critique of social housing and exploitation.
