A group of black teenagers from Moss Side are interviewed and talk about their experiences of racial discrimination - at school, in the army and by the police.

Also screening is ‘Strangers Yet’ – a follow up programme made 10 years later. There will be time for discussion following the screening.

A collaboration between the North West Film Archive and the Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race Relations Resource Centre and Education Trust, for Black History Month.
