SHOT on location in south London, SHANK (15) takes a futuristic look at what life could be like for Britain's disenfranchised youth if the recession continues and teenagers in urban areas are driven further and further to the edges of society.
This is a world where food is scarce and where rival gangs are driven to extremes as they battle it out for survival.
It is directed by Mo Ali, one of the most exciting directors to come out of the British urban music scene.
It stars hot UK music artist Ashley "Bashy" Thomas in his first feature role, Michael Socha (This is England), Kaya Scodelario (Skins), Colin Salmon and Robbie Gee.
Set to an explosive grime and hip-hop soundtrack, this is a ride into a world of violence and chaos.
