Chris and Caz, close friends since childhood, are disc jockeys on an all-black pirate radio station called Soul Patrol, which broadcasts its funk message from an East End garage. They are shocked by the death of their friend TJ, who has been murdered while cruising the park at night. Chris soon realizes that a ghetto blaster found in the park by his little sister contains a recording of the killer's voice.
An unapologetically urban drama, this seminal queer film by renowned artist and filmmaker, Isaac Julien, addresses social issues pertaining to race and class.
Selected as an inspirational work by this year's Canadian Spotlight Artist Dana Inkster, Young Soul Rebels deserves to light up the screen once again for contemporary audiences.
