Yardie

Yardie is the fresh, compelling and remarkable directorial debut from Idris Elba.Set in '70s Kingston and '80s Hackney, D (Aml Ameen, The Maze Runner, Kidulthood), has never fully recovered from the murder of his older brother Jerry Dread. D grows up under the wing of a Kingston Don and music producer named King Fox (Sheldon Shepherd). When Fox dispatches him to London, D reconnects with his childhood sweetheart, Yvonne (Shantol Jackson), and his daughter who he's not seen since she was a baby. He also hooks up with a soundclash crew, called High Noon. But before he can be convinced to abandon his life of crime and follow the righteous path , he encounters the man who shot his brother 10 years earlier, and embarks on a bloody, explosive quest for retribution — a quest which brings him into conflict with vicious London gangster Rico (Stephen Graham, This is England).
