Blue Story
Their bond made them brothers. The streets made them enemies.
Directed by Rapman
Produced by Paramount Pictures, BBC Film
A tragic coming-of-age story about two boys whose deep friendship is destroyed by the violent geography and gang culture of London's streets.
Blue Story is a tragic tale of a friendship between Timmy and Marco, two young boys from opposing postcodes. Timmy, a shy, smart, naive and timid young boy from Deptford, goes to school in Peckham where he strikes up a friendship with Marco, a charismatic, streetwise kid from the local area. Although from warring postcodes, the two quickly form a firm friendship until it is tested and they wind up on rival sides of a street war. Blue Story depicts elements of Rapman's own personal experiences and aspects of his childhood.
