Based on Jamal Ali’s acclaimed stage play Dark Days and Light Nights, Black Joy tells the story of a naive Guyanese immigrant who learns the hard way about life on the streets of Brixton.
Presenting vivid characters, terrific action and a superb soundtrack of soul, funk, dub and reggae, Anthony Simmons’ gritty film is an honest and insightful comic drama, exposing the lives of unemployed black Britons and immigrants in a ghettoised London.
Starring Norman Beaton (Desmond’s), Trevor Thomas (Inseminoid), Floella Benjamin (Play School) and a young Oscar James (EastEnders), Black Joy comes to Blu-ray for the very first time.
