Rapman moves from YouTube to feature films with 'Blue Story,' a tale of two South-East London friends living in different neighborhoods torn apart by gang violence.
In “Blue Story,” British rapper-turned-filmmaker Rapman wields words and images the way his young characters use weapons and fists to taunt, cajole, provoke and hurt one another. It’s a Shakespearean rhapsody in indigo where love, friendship, betrayal and revenge swirl and blur with life-changing consequences.
As Timmy and Marco navigate typical aspects of high school — homework, girls, hanging out — they are buffeted by larger forces, namely the daily clashes of the Caribbean and African gangs that rule Peckham and nearby Lewisham. The boys’ friendship is further challenged by their close ties to that decades-old conflict through Timmy’s old primary school friend Kiron and Marco’s brother Switcher , both upper echelon gang members on opposite sides.
