Welcome
to the 21st Century. A story of England told from
inner city London. Set amongst a landscape of police
wagons and estate blocks. Trapped in a World where
hate breeds hate. A story seen through the eyes
of four young friends from different cultural backgrounds.
One City. One weekend.
Director
Mike Leigh said of the film: "THE PLAGUE
is great. It's a remarkable breath of fresh air.
It's anarchic, crazy, kind of rough-edged and raw,
but it's got an amazing energy, and it embraces
white kids, black kids, Asian kids, kids up to no
good, boys and girls out on the street. It's a full
length film, made low budget, so it's absolutely
a gang of people getting together with great imagination
and wit, and a bunch of talented actors. It pulsates
with energy."
