SUMMARY:Pay What You Choose: Pressure
DESCRIPTION:With a screenplay written by Horace Ové and fellow Trinidadian author Sam Selvon\, Pressure follows a Black family in west London; from the parents who came from Trinidad as part of the Windrush generation with their first son\, now part of the Black Power Movement\, to their younger British-born son Tony (Herbert Norville). As he leaves school and encounters prejudice on individual and institutional levels\, Tony struggles to find acceptance in the country he grew up in yet has no Caribbean home he can dream of returning to. \nA groundbreaking and authentic exploration of the anxieties of an emerging second-generation of West Indians in Britain\, Pressure (1975) is a significant title in the history of British Cinema\, and remains as relevant now as it ever was — with its themes of police corruption\, discrimination and employment on an individual and institutional level.
