its a pretty decent glimpse at reggae/sound system in UK those times for those of us who were unfortunately not around, or too young to remember.
If not that, then its at least a view on life in inner-city London in late 70's, for young black youts predominantly, though theres whites in the film with quite important roles too.

I loved it when first saw it, and still have to put the VHS in every so often...
