Storyline

- TriviaThe film's characters Chris and Caz are operating a pirate radio station from a tower block in Dalston. Dalston is a real-life district of the London Borough of Hackney, located at a distance of 4 miles (6.4 km) to the north-east of Charing Cross. Dalston was a hub for the 1970s and 1980s pub rock venues, but most of them were demolished after the gentrification of the area in the 1990s and 2000s.

Featured review
Young Soul Rebels
I'm afraid that this is a bit all over the place. In attempting to deal with multiple issues simultaneously it ends up doing justice to none of them well. A man is killed why cruising for gay sex in a local park and the subsequent investigation tries to deal with racism, sexism and homophobia amongst both the local community and the police. At times it is a love story - platonic and sexual between friends and lovers but the lines are blurred and the conflict seems largely manufactured. The performances are clunky and the script likewise. Sorry, but too much of a hutch-potch for me to make much sense of.
