Pulsating with an aggressively raw sexuality, this blistering British indie centers on Cal, a teenage gang-banger, so desperate to hide his gay cravings that he binges on drugs and anonymous sex. When Cal’s secret lust for his best mate and fellow gang member Jonno comes to light, drama erupts in the tightly-knit crew. And then when Cal meets and falls for a hot French gay boy, a violent confrontation ruptures the group. Shank ushers in a fresh new breed of gay cinema – sharp, edgy and in-your-face.
