This is England is a movie displaying the problems, patriotism and racism England was facing during the eighties. The movie is about a young boy who grows up in England in 1983. He is facing bullying everyday at school while struggling with the loss of his dad who died in the Falkland Wars. One day home from school he stumbles into a gang of skinheads that he starts hanging out with. These people become his “family” along with his mother. They take care of him and introduce him to their views on racism, white nationalism etc. He later in the movie becomes best buddies with Combo who is the leader of their gang and a strong British nationalist. The issues in England come through strongly via this movie.
