SUS
1979: Election Night - A police interview room. Delroy's pregnant wife has been found dead in a pool of blood and he is brought in as the chief suspect.
He is interrogated by D.S. Karn, a witty, psychotic racist and his violent sidekick D.C. Wilby.
Both high on the prospect of a Conservative landslide victory they try to lure him into a quick confession. Callous humiliation gives way to a barrage of sinister violence, leading to a devastating conclusion.
From Barrie Keeffe, the writer of the British classic ’The Long Good Friday’ and based on a true story, SUS is a gripping and emotionally fuelled drama, with dialogue crackling in humour and insight.
It is also a powerful outcry against institutional racism and of course the ever controversial SUS laws.
It pulls no punches in its depiction of a corrupt system that fails the very people it should protect.
Starring: Ralph Brown, Clint Dyer, Rafe Spall
