Dias distantes
Pee Wee
Na linha de This is England, Surge agora este Awaydays. Baseado no livro de Kevin Sampson, que retratava fielmente a cena Casual, que surgiu no final dos anos 80 em Inglaterra. Neste novíssimo Awaydays, um grupo de amigos reune-se á volta de futebol, roupa desportiva, música, copos e alguma porrada com grupos rivais. Enfim, estávamos nos anos 80, Margaret Tatcher governava com a sua mão de ferro e os jovens tinham-se de entreter com alguma coisa. Vivia-se muito na rua e nela havia códigos próprios que surgiam diariamente entre os jovens ingleses. O punk ardeu rápido, o mod revival já era e o Casual nascia nesse preciso momento, inspirado nas viagens dos apoiantes/supporters ás competições europeus de futebol das equipas inglesas que traziam para as ilhas o último grito das marcas desportivas italianas e do norte da europa. A trilha sonora fica por conta de Joy Division, The Cure e demais bandas pós-punk

Liam
Liam
A morality tale of xenophobia, religious prejudice, mob violence, poverty, and their effect on two children in Liverpool during the Depression. When a shipyard closes, Liam and Teresa's dad loses his job. Liam, who's about 8, making his first Holy Communion, gets a regular dose of fire and brimstone at church. Teresa, about 13, has a job as a maid to the Jewish family that owns the closed shipyard. The lady of that house is having an affair, and Teresa becomes an accomplice. Liam stutters terribly, especially when troubled. Dad comes under the sway of the Fascists, who blame cheap Irish labor and Jewish owners. A Molotov cocktail brings things to a head.
