Sweet Sixteen

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Grim but compelling drama from Ken Loach, starring non-professional actor Martin Compston.
Greenock, Scotland: teenager Liam wants nothing more than to buy a caravan for his drug-using mother when she is released from prison.
Paradoxically, though, it is through drug dealing that Liam hopes to finance his idea, which leads to a run-in with Inral gangsters. Review page 53.
Film Highlights: page 48
