Director: Lee Hutcheon

Summary:

The ganglands of Scotland are no place for children; but for four street-wise youngsters, it is their only reality. Raised in a culture where criminals are glamorized and violence is the order of the day, it’s unsurprising that they are so seduced by the gangster lifestyle and its promise of instant wealth. Inevitably, the four kids are drawn deeper and deeper into a world they don’t belong, and their journey becomes a struggle for survival. Like Ken Loach’s ‘teenager versus the City’ drama SWEET SIXTEEN, IN A MAN’S WORLD is a gritty portrayal of the hope, desperation and betrayal these kids face--told from their perspective--as they journey to the unforgiving heart of the Celtic underworld. It marks the feature length debut of writer-director Lee Hutcheon, who has drawn much of the film’s story from his own experiences of growing up in Aberdeen. As such, he forgoes casting big name actors in favour of local Scottish talent, who add an air of raw honesty to the film.
