Event information
Winner of numerous awards for both its Director; Sally El Hosaini and Newcomer James Floyd, My Brother The Devil is a captivating tale of modern urban life. Two teenage brothers must face their own prejudices head on if they are to survive the perils of being British Arabs growing up on the streets of gangland London.
Rashid (James Floyd) is a young man from a traditional Egyptian family who runs with a gang that rules the streets of Hackney, one of London's most ethnically-mixed and historically volatile neighbourhoods. Rashid's younger brother, Mo, (Fadi Elsayed) idolizes his handsome, charismatic older brother and dreams of following in his footsteps, but Rashid envisions a different life for Mo and insists that he stay away from gang life and stick to his studies.
When Rashid forms a bond with Sayyid (Said Taghmaoui), an older man of similar background who is now a successful photographer, he is introduced to a world he never knew existed. But, just as he decides he wants out of his dead-end life on the streets, Mo decides he wants in, and starts doing drug runs behind Rashid's back. Headed on a collision course of conflicting desires, each young man is forced to face himself and confront the brother he thought he knew.
