From
notorious late director Theo van Gogh ('Interview'),
a hip hop fuelled tale of disaffected Moroccan youth
trying to get by in the mean streets of Amsterdam.
After a botched robbery, five young delinquents are
sent to the Glen Mills School, a tough, experimental
reform school. Meanwhile, the streets outside still
beckon them back to a life of crime. At a crossroads,
they must now choose which path to take.
