Not sure about it being low budget though.
Growing up in these times in the UK, I have to say, this is pretty accurate. The power cuts were real. The bin men being on strike so the rubbish was piled high on the streets. Fighting between right and left wing factions, race riots, mass unemployment.
Hazel o'Connor had some hit singles with this music and was big in 1980 when this came although most of the music has aged badly and sounds awful.
The direction is basic, the script is average but I will say the film has its heart in the right place.
I had so much fun looking out for young versions of of tadays well known actors. Jonathan Pryce was a special treat.
