What happens

Brotherhood (stylised as BrOTHERHOOD) is a 2016 British crime drama film written, produced and directed by Noel Clarke. It is the sequel to 2006's Kidulthood and 2008's Adulthood, and the third and final instalment of The Hood Trilogy. It stars Clarke, Jason Maza (who also co-produced the film), Arnold Oceng, Stormzy, Cornell John, David Ajala, Shanika Warren-Markland and Adjoa Andoh. Brotherhood follows Sam (Clarke), now a family man of two children, being driven back to his criminal lifestyle. Clarke initially did not want to make a third film, but eventually returned in 2015 to write, direct and star in the third film of his Hood Trilogy. Filming began in London in November. Brotherhood was screened in the Special Presentations section at the 2016 Toronto International Film Festival and was released on 29 August 2016. The film received mixed reviews and becoming the highest-grossing film in the trilogy. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
