I understand this is an heavy movie but outside of it please be careful of the realities you choose to ignore because it doesn't make you feel "good". History is kept for us to not repeat the same mistakes.
OddLuckyOne this is a powerful comment!! 👏🏾👏🏾
👏👏👏👏👏
Who exactly is writing this "history" and do they have a vested interest in its accounts and narratives? Then...let's discuss this concept of...."repeating".
Paul A. Jules III Well, I can certainly appreciate your comment... first, let’s start off with the media and what they chose to share or what details they chose to leave out for the convenience of selling a certain narrative. Ultimately, it has a huge role in how individuals are perceived even when they’re not accustomed to being around certain types of individuals/cultures. And then in regards history, we are literally repeating right now... regardless of ignorance. Prophecy is coming to fluorescent
@@thethird1967 *sigh* where does one even begin with the questions you have posed ? 😥 #wholecanofworms
This looks like an incredible film but it might be too heavy for me to watch
For real, I feel like crying after watching the trailer. I might have to pass even though it looks like a really good movie
Don't be a pussy
I feel ya.
Me too. Honestly, the preview almost made me cry. Inner hate is real in every country.
It'll be heavy but thats the point, you need to watch it, you cant just not watch it because you can't face the reality of things like that happening
The fact that it's a true story....my stomach can't even handle the trailer.... I'm too sad to be angry
Weakling
Bro this dude is the definition of a fighter and an amazing character and role model. I would have PTSD for life if this happened to me. This guy became a successful actor and he has a law degree. Shows the beauty of life he was this close to dying or committing suicide.
Its not fact, its his story. Personally I believe his story but I do think Hollywood probably added things to evoke even more of a reaction. However bottom line is it was a very racially charged time period across the world so its a relevant story which a lot of people experienced worldwide. Important to note though that there are countless families in the UK who fostered children in the 70s 80s from many different countries, providing a much better environment than this example. There is a reason their families sent their children to British families. The vast majority, in good areas, were a better option for their children. As was shown when he moved to a better area himself. Although It doesn't fit with the Hollywood narrative to tell those stories. But Stupid, radical groups across the world and religions do spoil it for all the good work which goes on if they don't provide some balance.
As USUAL only the perspective of black/African MALES MATTER ain't ni one gonna touch he Saartjie Baartman story Venus Hottentot the most ABUSED and inhumane example for ALL blacks (she was used as a circus animal for prodding jokes ABUSE AND DISPLAY of nakedness); at least these MALES found a friend life or hobby SAARTJI DIED ALONE!!!!!😤😤😡🙅🙅🙅
It's not true.
Looks good but I can tell I'm gonna be pissed throughout the whole movie.
Lmao
Wow This is a true story!!!! I can remember a interview of this boy!
Sadly this was a time, but it's different now.
Rodnye Theoc yeah it’s gonna make everyone disgusted and shook
We all are. Gosh
I’m going to support. I’m tired of burying my head in the sand due to difficult subject matters. I’m gonna watch this.
You are so right. We must watch this, how else can our stroy be told....if our community don't support movies like these our young people will never know the truth about the world they live in and the true nature of the system
As USUAL only the perspective of black/African MALES MATTER ain't ni one gonna touch he Saartjie Baartman story Venus Hottentot the most ABUSED and inhumane example for ALL blacks (she was used as a circus animal for prodding jokes ABUSE AND DISPLAY of nakedness); at least these MALES found a friend life or hobby SAARTJI DIED ALONE!!!!!😤😤😡🙅🙅🙅
Me too
well said! how was it?
That’s going to be a depressing thing to watch
So depressing
jonmel the trailer itself is depressing
I'm already depressed.
I wish I never watched this trailer it way too depressing.
depends how it ends
Wow! I'm floored that this was going on not too long ago. It amazes me all the different types of horrifying issues black people go thru around the globe.
Simply because of their skin color.
It like living with a ball and chain, being told to wait 24 hours after the race start to start running, and being beaten and kicked along the way to the finish line while white in the audience tell you to pull yourself up and not complain because racism doesn't exist since they haven't experienced all the while they are the ones beating you and kicking you along the way simply because they can and it's fun.
@G T
Just yesterday a white guy actually said racism doesn't exist because he hasn't seen it or experienced it. I was amazed at that comment. But, his comments is typical of those who perpetrate racist on others. They think their behavior is innocent and doesn't have an affect on people.
I also had a white student of mine to ask me if I had the opportunity would I want to be white. He had no idea that question revealed multiple assumptions he had about himself and black people. My answer was no on multiple levels, one being I wouldn't want to live a life thinking I'm superior over another human being. I also told him I wouldn't want to live a life getting by on the color of my skin and not by my efforts. That would make me question my competency. He was shocked, because he always all thought black people wanted to be white in order to have a easier life. I told him struggle build character the lack of it makes you fragile and insecure. He had to agree. He said most white people he knew were insecure.
These things still go on but it dosent get reported
Yeah I never thought about it on a deeper level how racism is experienced in the UK. We all know about it in general and yes we know racism is everywhere bc it lies within the racist not the country. I’ve been to the UK as a black woman and didn’t experience any racism and I was traveling alone. I’ve experienced more racism here in the US then abroad, and not just by white people. I was welcomed in Iceland and France as well. However, I do know that African migrants have experienced harsh racism in Europe. I just never thought about such eye opening examples of it or that he joined their group! Wow.
This sh!t is too much for me
This was one of the best films that I watched this year. It became even better in my eyes when I remembered it was based on a true story. It's not your typical white oppressor-black victim story so don't be afraid to watch it. At the end of the day, this was just one eye opening story of how hating yourself can lead you down a seriously dark path. This was the story of one young man, all the other children who were farmed have their own.

True story me hole😅
How can I download the full movie
How do I get the full movie
How can I download it pls
Lets all take a moment to acknowledge Damson Idris' acting. 👏🏾👏🏾 that guy really working hard out here.
The main guy is also a main character from a US show called Snowfall. A great actor, fan of the director and I'm Nigerian so of course I'm watching this.
He’s also in black mirror
Funny how he from UK kinda like that dude good at acting
Damson Idris
@@A.Hakim1806 he grew up with a rich family going to the best schools
@Mr Football I agree with you 100%. Black British culture is only confined to the big cities. Once your in English suburbia you basically have to accept white British culture. Virtually every famous Black British you meet is from in or around greater London or Birmingham.
Finally a story about these children. I heard they are/were labelled 'Omo Elizabeth'.
It will be depressing to watch!😭😭😭
Good to see that AAA is telling his story and I am proud his the director! 😊
It's true! It happened!
I will watch this because I am a black woman. Of Jamican descent as opposed to Nigerian, but Black History has never not been pleasant. I'm ready for whatever emotions I may feel throughout and afterwards. It is an education.
"Black History has never been pleasant"
please correct.. double negatives are unnecessary..
not really
not really educational coz its not history correct
@@radovantoth7233 English must not be your first language either
@@SecretEyeSpot yea, im not from england
This dude was so neglected, abused, and traumatized that I'm surprised he was even stable enough (alive even!) to tell his story. This was a sick sick flick!!
Unfortunately, this was the reality, for many families back then!
It's heartbreaking to hear to watch as I know first-hand this was a reality!
And the we have safe and sound teens ending their lives just cz they feel depressed over a mere breakup
We need to accept that western issues are manageable.They are difficult yeah, but nothing compared to what others in some parts of the world experience
If this man was able to SA a pig (he was forced),get stepped on,get peed on and STILL be alive...then I think we should also have the drive to keep on living after a bitter divorce
@@youjustgotburned3980he killed the pig before it got to that point but absolutely

Idk if my blackness will allow me to watch this .. looks amazing but might piss me off 🤦🏾♀️
Agree 🤦🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️
I agree 💯 I can't watch this to much
😂....🤷🏿♂️💯.....😒
Juicytribe okay cause I’m ready to fuck somebody up off the trailer 🤦🏽♀️
As it should. A lot of people had to endure this. Their stories deserve to be acknowledged.
This is based on his story - this is so sad
Natural Serena Yep! The actor Adewale Agbaje spoke during an interview about how he was adopted by a white family, harassed by the British KKK, and started running the gang after he began fighting back.
That’s him dropping himself off pretty much
Lauren Cameron
what the hell he join the KKK? I’m confused please explain this to in American because I don’t understand and it’s giving me a headache 🤕
@@enilehcodramramlised8716 Since it was one of the only reference he grew up with, he may have wanted to be respected by them and to fit in so bad...😔.
They tell you it’s a true story but it is not.
The stories they tell are never true when you REALLY look into them. Holes everywhere.
They will tell black people ANYTHING to keep us in line.
I'm Nigerian and this makes me so happy and sad, yes yes yes a million times.
Steven Daniel 2 first names I see what you did there
My 2 first names is Lovina Louis and I’m Nigerian too, so…
I don't understand why people are saying "this is too sad to watch". Yes, it is. And a lot of people had to actually LIVE it. To reject a real story that needs to be told is what is really sad to be honest.
I will watch this movie, because all the people who were made to feel less but became brave enough to tell their stories deserve to be acknowledged.
" This is too sad to watch" GTFOH
Funny thing is though, people will line up to watch a hundred slave movies, but something this close yo home, an issue that foreshadows a lot of what black people are going through RIGHT NOW all over the world becomes "too heavy". Smh
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾🙋🏾♀️
I can't speak for others but for me personally Slave movies are adaptations of what we could not control. I don't know a lot about brainwashing but I do know about trying to fit in. But to deny one's self is a pill I don't think any human can swallow easily. As I navigate through this world I learned there are others who would not like me some good most bad. I don't wanna be a statistic Or front page news of something I can control. I can control not watching a movie like. This type of movie shows visually what I know to be the truth. It will feed into my anger and cause me to lose my humanity. I think it best for me to stay far way from shit like this.
100% agree
@@clark7474 Well stated....My thinking exactly! Hell, the trailer was enough for my blood pressure to creep up. What's really sad is Blacks are still dealing with inhumane treatment. Smh
Yeah. Have they ever seen ‘amistad’, ‘Schindler’s list’?
This man's story is sad,tragic , amazing and excellent. I didn't know he went through a lot of self hatred in his life when he was a teenager
Floyd Thomas satta know if it's true that he hated himself must have turned out to be a blessing it made him try harder and now he's succeeding that should be part of the movie
@@robertbalibrera2583 Are you a Caucasian?
Wow!! This is gonna be another blockbuster... Soul gripping. Well done to the casts and crew. Great story.
Yes Genevieve Nnaji.... Come through with the fire performance.... 👏👏👏👏
Mike... what will i do without you supporting Gene.....this is going to be lit....
@@kennethparku5156 Too lit..... Can't wait....
Fire performance? She can't act. She is beautiful to look at.
@@LibertarianGal can you act
genevieve is underated for real
So crazy how many different walks of life you never could have imagined happen every single day. Heavy or light, sad or beautiful life happens but we don’t always get to see everyone’s interpretation of it. Here’s another example of that.
So true!
This was a great film, very emotional . A big respect to those nigerian children who were farmed out during that time and for those caribbean children who were similarly left here in England while their parents went back home.
This is based on Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje’s early life story. I’ve been reading some of the reviews; it seems to be a powerful narrative that is sometimes heavy handed. I’m definitely going to watch it. The early migrants struggled to assimilate into British culture between 1950s-1970s. We rarely hear their stories. I’m glad to report that I had a very different experience growing up in Liverpool during the 1980s 😉

Respect !! our world is twisted and toxic.. We are free souls..we are human!!
For all those saying this movie is “to deep” “to heavy” “ I just wanna be entertained” this movie is literally made for people like y’all
Yes it is!
I recall Adewale talking about writing this story in an interview several years ago.
Wow!! Geneveive Nnaji in the same movie with Hollywood stars the likes of Kate Bekinsale and Gugu- Mbatha Raw is no small feat .Congratulations Ma!! At last you’re breaking through 👏🏾👏🏾
Tochi Agu Congratulations to her.. Queen Omotola did that in 2012 as a lead star in the movie Amina starring alongside big Hollywood stars like Wil johnson etc ...The two keeps making us proud 👑🙌
Her “breakthrough” you see African people. Smh, one of the biggest stars in Africa has her “breakthrough” only when she stars in Hollywood movie. Genevieve already had her breakthrough, it’s called Sharon Stone.
@@sincerelyeugene6638 yesss! You said it all. The brainwashing is still very prevelant. Some black people stay looking for white validation and approval.
Genevieve had gotten her breakthrough many years ago.....❤❤❤
As a person born in Denmark to Nigerian parents, I am glad I was born 45 years after the movie.
Just watched it...and I can't believe I just heard of it...today...absolutely incredible...I need a whole autobiography out of him now.❤❤❤❤❤❤
This looks more terrifying than any horror film.
Oh PLEASE 🙄As USUAL only the perspective of black/African MALES MATTER ain't ni one gonna touch he Saartjie Baartman story Venus Hottentot the most ABUSED and inhumane example for ALL blacks (she was used as a circus animal for prodding jokes ABUSE AND DISPLAY of nakedness); at least these MALES found a friend life or hobby SAARTJI DIED ALONE!!!!!😤😤😡🙅🙅🙅
Her story was very sad but don't invalidate the pain of others.
Woah😳😳😳 I'm watching.
The director went thru this...and decided to write about it as some sort of therapeutic? Wow. No hold backs, he's just letting us in. This is so trippy😩😩
Damson Idris will win an oscar one day
R.Tyrane Tallie the movie will not do well at all it's an emotional beating similar to Passion of the Christ it's more like a snuff film they're imitating brain rot like they do in Hollywood become a Hollywood movie star you become detached from reality and the world as they used to know it
maybe in africa
Thank you for showing the history of a black British person, it's rare to see movies about black British history
Did British people bury this history or something? Everyone acting so sensitive but in America I am very aware of the history with African Americans
@@casanova842 British history does it's best to disregard black British history, and it's somewhat easier because white British racism and such is usually associated with "the external (ex) colonies", and not specifically on British soil
Chantel British cannot make movies somehow they do not have the ability or talent to make a movie the guy should get into music England has the best musicians this movie is a great big Downer if you want to feel bad for yourself and hate other people and feel resentful and agitated and angry this is the movie for you
@@lovedrakexx It does not. I can walk out of my door and in a 5 minute walk I will see a mural of the Windrush boat, murals of black leaders and a statue of a black playwright.
Amanda Andrews and so you should, but to prove my point further the windrush, was the arrival on Caribbean people from ex British “colonies” on British soil, and many of the statues and historic black icons are native to such places.
For the ones who says this mayne to hard to watch.. Place yourself in his shoes . he lived it.
Aldon Sockwell 💯💯💯
Hence why it’s sad thought and hard to watch
That young man from Snowfall. He is a very good actor. This looks like a good movie. I would like to see it.
The black in me wouldn't allow me to watch, it seems good though
Colonization :an epic journey...
on god 😂😂😂
Self hatred... Lack of love..
More like a fucking nightmare.
Hasn’t stopped the media is strong arm of theirs.
They want a nwo
Wow... I can't watch this and it's not because it's bad. It's too deep and heavy. I just want to laugh and be entertained, not cry and become bitter.
Edward Ejiofor I know right!!
I guess people like you can't stand the truth about this life. You would rather ignore the truth all your life. Life is not a game friend, read the truth about this life in the scriptures of the Bible.
I understand really but just be careful of the truths you chose to ignore just because it doesn't make you "happy".
John Blessed - The bible is a book of white lies written by white people that hate your black ass. Stop worshipping the image of the white man.
Film is a medium for any and all stories to be told, true or fictional, funny or harrowing, soothing or horrifying. No matter how you choose to feel, people are allowed to share their stories and we’re allowed to watch and listen to them. I can’t imagine your reaction to actual documentaries. You should try to stop being so sensitive.
Real Stories make the best stories.
Finally we get a film that real hits at the heart of race and identity to Britain.
This is fake history. Majority of black people from Nigerian families were never "farmed".
@@bakedbeans5494 source: trust me bro
Just finished watching this.... There are no words i can simply put the describe such a powerful movie, powerful acting and powerful story line. Truly has left me in shock and tears. Being a turkish guy that never had to deal with this kind of problem and born in the 80's where racism was still at it's strongest point, i feel so much empathy for the black people, this has brought me closer to understand how tough it must of been and probably still is around the globe. I truly am so sorry for the unnecessary suffering that has been inflicted upon you all. You have my love and thoughts for any human being suffering this kind of issue.
Damn, I just finished watching when they see us, this might seem more emotionally draining
Still haven't watched When They See Us. I'm just tired of all of it. Trump. The horrific shit at the border. Racism. All of it. I'm black. I get it!!!!!!
I couldn't watch When They See Us either....I stopped once they arrested them after the incident took place in the park, and thereafter the process of questioning them individually and just how the investigator began to corroborate the truth to have them pinned it against each other....I was done at that point. Just seeing the fear and confusion in their innocent faces was too much to stomach.
I honestly couldn't watch it. I'd get really emotional and stuff.
Im not going to ever watch it or doss i think. My blackness wont let me.
@@GladysGrace001 It got 5mins into episode 2 and stopped. It took me two weeks to go back and revisit the rest of the show. Even then I had to take massive breaks between episode 3 and 4. After episode 4 I'd never bawled so hard in my life after watching something and definitely not for so long. Took me almost an hour afterwards to bring my emotions down. When They See Us broke and drained me.
Isn’t this basically Adewale Akinoye-Agbage’s life story? I remember reading about him growing up with self hatred & growing up abusing other black kids. Should be interesting.
I said the same thing, looks like what I read about him on the internet
It is about him
It's his life story and it's absolutely amazing how he came up from all of this. He could've easily been murdered and tried to end his life. Instead he's a Hollywood actor and a lawyer.
Hope they win an award for this story. Just from this trailer, it really hits me
Chisom Bah that's what the guys hoping for but I don't think it is it's not inspiring it's ugly depressing hateful racism is selling very well these days his timing couldn't be better I can do without
Robert balibrera true talk
honestly i wish they would stop pushing all this racist content, it doesn't teach lessons it just keeps reminding everyone about racism
Chris R No it highlights what people go through everyday
Chris R yes everyone needs to be reminded about racism. not speaking about it & just pushing it aside to be ignored as if black people are not suffering everyday because of it is ridiculous. In this case it’s his REAL LIFE story and he should be allowed to share it
Hands down one of the best films I’ve watched .. A must see no matter how DEEP it is .. Let the healing begin, no doubt this has awoken a lot of wounds for people . I had the opportunity to watch it tonight at a media screening and it blew my mind . Adewale Agbaje is an amazing human.. Definitely a must see at the cinemas - spread the word . This film must go viral .. ✊🏾❤️ ( It’s a TRUE STORY ) Watch it !!!!!!!!
It's not a true story.
LibertarianGal20009 According to the director it is 🤷🏾♀️ ( his own story ) . I have no reason to disbelieve him .
@@sengaekiba9642 Its important to note that this is his story. There is little factual record. Personally I believe him, although I wouldn't be surprised if Hollywood made him make it more dramatic but it certainly was a racially charged time period in London and the whole world.(Still is in a lot of areas in the world). It is important to note that parts of London were more dangerous than others(just like most major cities) and that there was a reason Nigerian families sent their children to British families. It was on the whole a better option if you sent them to the right areas.There are countless Families who fostered immigrant children in much better environments but those stories don't fit the narrative of Hollywood movies at the moment.
This is gonna be emotionally draining.
This looks good, but also a tough/disturbing watch.
Very disturbing
A very powerful perspective finally articulate in film ! 🙌🏾Bravo to Damson
Wow! This preview was heavy.. I don't know what else to say. Heavy...
For everyone saying it looks great but too heavy or will make you angry...history is not always pretty. Ignoring it or looking away will change nothing. You cannot pick and choose what parts you want to see...history will always repeat itself so the sooner you open your eyes, the sooner we can begin to rewrite it
Well said
These are the kind of movies the African film industry should be producing ; historical movies. Kudos Nigeria.
Paul from Cameroon.
Paul Matemb there's nothing historical about that movie it's a fantasy
Watched this trailer three times. Fist two was so hard to swallow. But the third I think made it clear I have to see this movie no matter how difficult it may be to sit through. This happened. This is someone’s truth. It may not be pretty but it deserves to be shared.
Soon as he painted his face white I knew I couldn’t watch this
MrMrgreat214 it goes back to the rules and the laws of the Lord the Lord knew who you were when you were in the womb every abilities everything about you is all you need to live this life everybody anybody all of us should not waste any of the time we have here I love the Lord because he loves all I'm hoping to have the best report card for him that I can possibly do before judgement day
He was a child there. No?
What about all the Black people pit there bleaching their skin. Can you look at them?
@@robertbalibrera2583 Amen.
I'll probably get extremely emotional watching this but Damson Idris is an amazing talent.

True story of this actor....I was surprised at the end who it was.....Didn't do my research on the character, but when I saw who's story it was, my jaw dropped.....Very powerful movie.
Adewale went through all these 😓😓😠! See God's hand, he has lived to tell his Story... that's courage
How am I only hearing of this now and this will be so hard to watch, the trailer nearly had me in tears
Word!
Those D**khead wh*te boys...feel to punch them up!
I will be watching.. Damson's work as an actor is superb.. he's Oscar-bound if u ask me.. so many depths to his talents.. and such passion for the craft behind his eyes when he's on screen..
I’ve been seeing so many clips of this on TikTok but there is no way I could watch this.
How in the world did this film not be highlighted. A must to watch !
On par with this is England another classic. Was awesome to be part of this
The word is 'impossible' but it seems that 'I'm possible'💪💪💪
Never give up till the suffering reviews the glory in you!👏👏🙌
Gugu Mbatha-Raw is one of the best actors of her generation!
omg Genevieve Nnaji is in this film, -go girl! I've always wanted her to go international. Damson is on his way no doubt.
I'm fifty years old and a black Londoner and grew up in a similar area and era to Adewale, about 13 miles away. There were a few black skinheads back then, one of whom was an older brother to my mate. One or two of these black skins used to follow the local team West Ham, and I remember being wary of a few of them.
@@ThePoliticsofMusic you will know from experience of course, because the stories I received in Limehouse were anecdotal. The stories I used to hear were often about black 'hoolies' such as the 'legendary' CP. CP was not a skin as such, but in those days that's what we believed he was.
@@ThePoliticsofMusic there were attacks on black people of course, but most of the the attacks I bore witness too and heard about were really against SE Asians. SE Asians who migrated in the 70s, didn't speak the language so well, had a different faith, clothes etc were targeted more often. The so called 'P bashing' was seen as acceptable by many. Maybe the film does refer to this, but it would be dishonest not to record the severe racial attacks against SE Asians in those days , and pretend it was just towards black people. I was about 10 when I saw an Asian bloke get attacked, I felt helpless.
Wow, thanks for the insight. So, this was a thing, black skinheads? Fascinating.
As a "TILBURY" I must watch this !
A lot of black people who were raised by black parents felt the same way he did.
Lmao
Especially in the U.K.!
Word🤨? Damn
@@Cmorrison626 yup I personally know quite a few
Theres actually a huge difference though. Because he had nobody to rely on whereas Black British children raised my black parents were primarily found in urban settings and communities where they could rely on each other for support from racism and discrimination. This guy was virtually trapped and suffocated.
I don’t know why everyone’s saying it looks “heavy” so they can’t see it. I think it looks like a beautiful film that will grab your heart but also spread awareness for a very important problem
MegaUtube99 it would do just the opposite it'll Harden your heart make you hateful and ignorant that's what the devil does that's the devil's job do not be a child of the devil
Gosh! I remember being young in the late 70's and it was tough. I remember my big brother always fighting racists 😔
It got more covert as time went on but at least back then you knew who hated you because of your skin colour.
One Pakistani family had it so bad they literally barricaded themselves in their home and the little girl was only a toddler. They had smashed windows, dog droppings smeared all over doors & windows etc etc
Definitely going cinema to watch this!
I just started crying cause some of us are like this and its heartbreaking.. That Rainbow is OUR PROMISE From God.
Just finished watching what a film, and big ups to adewole so happy for him. How could I have not know about how story untill this film. Damson as always never fails to impress.
Wrong time to release this film with the racial tension being so high right now... Hollywood be playing of the emotions of situations at times 🤦🏿♂️🤦🏿♂️
Boog Beats you just hit the bullseye sister that's exactly the timing couldn't be better racism is selling faster than hot cakes
Boog Beats this is what they want division why do you think they keep bringing shit up all the time
What are you taking about? Racial tensions have always been high in this country. Racism is nothing new. This movie is also based on a true story
Wow 👀Mainstream ain't gonna give this film no love. SMH. 2 much a reality check. BLACK IS BEAUTIFUL❤
King Mind mainstream? It is mainstream it will be shown in the cinemas this month and was already shown at the film festival and has won awards
@@British_Cocoa you only see previews on TH-cam. Nothing I have seen.. Similar to movie" Birth of a Nation." Movies with Heavy Substance aren't publicised like A Marvel Movie for example
I learnt about this part of black history only months ago. Never heard of such a thing. Glad this movie has been made to bring awareness to how we survived🙌🏾
Gugu Mbatha-Raw. Definitely have to watch this
No thanks , I'm tired of the self-hate ...and the racism
Brother: this is the reality. We allowed ourselves to be placed in this position through ignorance, and the same continues to this day. How many of us speak our Mother Tongues? Why is it that Nigerians - born in Nigeria! - only speak English?
@@BlackPrimeMinister I know it's reality, but sometimes too much negative info overwhelms the mind,stirs up hate and I hope u notice that both self-hate and racism is the topic of the day
@@SWSW560 I am entirely with you. I sympathise with your view. I'm tired of dealing with the garbage as well - but I'll still see the film to decode my Black British experience. We need to make films where we *win*. Falling in love with a white girl isn't that, if that's where it goes... but we'll see.
you can't run from it this is all real dude living in a white town I've seen it but with mixed kids
@@saharasafari4529 Not running ,just need a break from it,meaning don't need to see a true story played out in a movie right now
Spectacular film, just seen it today. The acting, the capturing of subtlety and intensity of emotion, the storytelling, everything about this film is phenomenal.
This looks like a heavy but necessary film to watch.
I put off watching this movie for ages and decided to watch it last night. I'm glad I watched it now. It's a hard watch at times. I grew up around that era and also suffered abuse from skinheads and racists. It was really tough growing up back then and very different to life today and the movie portrayed that brilliantly. The acting was superb especially the main character. This movie might be a lesson in humanity for those that need it...
I just want to give that person a big hug!!! There is no reason to go through that just because of your color!! I will not watch it, I can’t!!! Best of luck
I wish African artists will stop letting themselves be exploited like this. From the looks of it, Genevieve will probably have another “waka pass” role in this like she did in HALF OF A YELLOW SUN. This one might be even more bearable considering it’s actually set in Europe and narrates racial tensions. But I can’t for the life of me understand why a movie on the Biafra war like Half of A Yellow Sun will employ one of Africa’s biggest faces, just to put in two or three scenes, in a story about her own native country. While feeling the leading roles with Yankee.
Now this one too. They’ll put her face on the posters I’m sure, and give her high billing so that Africans can flock to watch, but she’ll probably have five minutes of screen time. The disrespect is too much sha.
Yh, we just let history like this disappear from people's heads to enable new generations to repeat.
I agree about the lack of screen time though, it's always like, how did white Europeans feel lol. Irrelevant!
Genevieve isn't a wakapass in this movie....She's a core character........she played Damson biological mother.........In Half of a yellow sun, Nigerians didnt play a waka pass..n Genevieve ddnt play a wakapass..........they played important role given to them.........
I wish I could watch this but it’s too heavy for me right now..
Nsiande Kweka I try to bypass these movies I cry to much when they are so deep and sad
Same tbh
Clearly that is why you need to watch it.
This guy was in black mirror. Good actor
yes!!!! could'nt remember where i seen him, that was a great episode
Its going to piss me off, at the same time its necessary. We have to stop being scared to see what's going on everyday. I'm definitely going to support.
Never had a trailer bring me to tears before🤦🏾♀️👏🏾this movie looks amazing
Woah Genevieve Nnaji is in this...if you know you know
Tooooooo heavy for me....it’ll mess up my health, but probably a good movie
🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
I can't even watch this tbh, it looks too upsetting
Wooooow not gonna lie.. this period of black British history is so hush-hush not often spoken about in British popular culture.. esp in younger generations (I'm 26). I know all about the earlier windrush era.. but this is really heavy stuff. The trailer alone hurt my heart.
It's all lies. Just do a basic internet search on the Skinhead gang in question.
I watched this yesterday...harrowing yet engaging. I can't imagine how it was to film.
I just want to say a number of Nigerian parents have been misbehaving for a very long time. It's sad. I'll watch this movie and cry, I know.
Oh stfu for god's sakes. Please. Just... shut. the. fuck. up.
Confused.. what do you mean?
This is going to be insanely sad
These film just make me so emotional unstable
Aaliyah Hibbert that's the whole point of the movie the guy who made it's waiting for the suckers to come in and watch his brain rot and believe he's doing everybody's a favor
Let's these movies motivate you put a fire in your gut.
I've seen countless movies and tv shows of all shape and form even very sad ones. Believe it or not this is the ONLY ONE that made me shed a tear
in whic platform can i watch it?
Just the trailer brought me to tears, I can only imagine how many tissues I'll need thru the entire thing. Look very interesting though
This is a good trailer, I wanna see this.
They want to keep reminding us of the past because the future looks BLACK
Lisa G 💯 big facts
@@eeshtubes beautifully said!
This film was written by a black man, it's his true story so what *they* are you talking about? Smh
No Name i’m well aware of those facts you mentioned. None of that changes the reality that brown people still have to rely on movie studios to greenlight their films if they expect to have decent distribution and THOSE people who run Hollywood (and mainstream media/music in general) have a vested interest in maintaining their fragile power holdings by continually manipulating the psychology of the consumers. FYI: Hollywood is the largest exporter of “American culture” and anybody who’s paying the slightest attention realizes that what Hollywood portrays in its films is not indicative of total reality.
i’m not going to argue about this bc unlike most people, i have closely scrutinized and studied the state of brown people and the systems of race/color caste that have burdened us all (even the people who seemingly benefit from them). Everyday i get a little more free from white supremacist mind control and i suggest EVERYone else be diligent about doing the same. The shit is beyond fraudulent.
@@eeshtubes well if you didn't notice, this is British film with nothing to do with America or Hollywood.
Franklin is way too much of a G to play this role lol
jaazy15 onG 💪🏾💪🏾🚫🎓
I cant see my dog Big Franklin goin out like this ....nah that cant be him lol. Hit that like button if you enjoying that SNOWFALL tho!!!
This looks like it’s going to be one of the best made films, that I’ll never watch. I can’t subject my soul to these narratives anymore.
