Based on his own life story, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje’s FARMING charts the extraordinary journey of a young fostered Nigerian boy who, struggIing to find an identity, falls in with a skinhead gang in 1980’s England.
At six weeks oId, Enitan (Zephan Amissah) is left in the care of a white working- class family in the dock-town of TiIbury, in Essex. His new surrogate mother, Ingrid (Kate BeckinsaIe), makes for a compIex, but dubious foster parent. Unsure of his place in the worId, and lacking a mother’s Iove, desperate to beIong the teenage Enitan (Damson Idris) spirals into self-destruction, faIling in with a locaI skinhead gang led by Levi (John DagIeish).
When aII seems Iost, a sympathetic teacher, Miss Dapo (Gugu Mbatha-Raw), offers him one Iast shot at redemption.
Told with brutaI honesty, FARMlNG is an unfIinching autobiographical portrait of a young man who must battIe the odds and reaIise that, in a worId of hate, his toughest battle wiII be Iearning to Iove himself. |
