It's sharp, smart and incredibly funny. But most importantly it's real, with none of the macho gangsta posturing that often makes tough, yoof-centric drama look like a lazy British retread of Grand Theft Auto.

Reviews for Shifty
A tightly-structured, hard-working thriller with a raw feel for character and place, and an optimistic outlook on the need for friendship and taking responsibility for one's actions.

An impressive, energetic debut that will leave you with a taste for more.
