- Synopsis:
Based on his own life story, Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje's 'Farming' charts the extraordinary journey of a young fostered Nigerian boy who, struggling to find an identity, falls in with a skinhead gang in 1980's England. At six weeks old, Enitan (Zephan Amissah) is left in the care of a white working-class family in Tilbury, Essex. His new surrogate mother, Ingrid (Kate Beckinsale), makes for a complex, but dubious foster parent. Unsure of his place in the world, and desperate to belong, the teenage Enitan (Damson Idris) spirals into self-destruction, falling in with a local skinhead gang led by Levi (John Dagleish). Told with brutal honesty, 'Farming' is an unflinching autobiographical portrait of a young man who must battle the odds and realise that, in a world of hate, his toughest battle will be learning to love himself. - Actors:
