CGiii Comment

Not exactly a pleasant film - the grainy black and white works well.

The HIV scene is bizarre to say the least and completely unnecessary.

But, it is a well put together little film that does hit hard amid the subtext.

The(ir) Blurb...

Set in contemporary Dublin, this is a timeless urban tale about "Clocker" and "Sanga", two young street kids whose innocence is starkly contrasted by the harsh environment in which they both live. Over the course of a day and in their interactions with various characters in central city locations, Clocker and Sanga learn much about each other and themselves as the start of their friendship develops.
