Grime Kids
Synopsis
ROCKS screenwriter Theresa Ikoko's exuberant drama series set during the early years of the East London grime scene - It’s 2001 and school’s out for the summer. Energised by the DIY spirit around them, Dane and his friends are eager to form a crew and get their music on pirate station Rinse FM. Ikoko’s fictional drama, loosely inspired by a book by DJ Target, perfectly captures a sense of time and place, and the moment when a local subculture was about to explode. (LFF Brochure)
