- Synopsis:
- "Vs." is an urban rites of passage drama set in the hostile and exciting UK rap battle scene. A troubled foster teen (Swindells) is introduced to the "no limits" world of UK battle-rap, where his aggression and sharp lyricism quickly makes him a controversial fan favourite. But when he doorsteps his biological mother after twelve years in care, he's forced to face his toughest opponent yet: his past. In 'Vs.' director, Ed Lilly, creates a dynamic world full of action, humour and roasting. Touching on themes of family, gender and sexuality the film is replete with a series of unpredictable turns that challenges the posturing machismo image of the battle rap scene.
