Fast girls

Today we watched the film fast girls. Fast Girls is a 2011 British drama film directed by Regan Hall and written by Jay Basu, Noel Clarke and Roy Williams. It stars Lenora Crichlow, Lily James, Bradley James, Noel Clarke and Rupert Graves. The film follows the story of two women as they become professional sprinters and join the British relay team for a World Championship event.  

The film portrays lots of youth culture stereotypes. About a young black girl & her sister having a difficult childhood and being kicked out of their house & needing a way out. Shania (Lenora Crichlow) sees her way out as running. This is because she is a very talented runner.

It also portrays the differences in socio-economic class as there is Shania competing against a rich girl & she's also competing against her dad as well in an way. This is because her dad wants her to perform to the level he wished he could. He wants her to live the career he wanted and wished he had.
