WARRIOR BOYZ

Synopsis:
Jagdeep carries the reminders of his gang experience mapped across his body in the form of bullet wounds and machete scars. His experience is an ominous warning to 15-year-old Tanvir, whose life is a free fall of alienation and violence. 18-year old Vicky, who is struggling to graduate from high school, refuses to even talk about his past for fear of retaliation. Warrior Boyz unflinchingly takes the lid off Vancouver's growing youth gang culture in the South Asian community. |
