Cass (2008)

In the pulsating heart of London, a city unacquainted with political correctness, an orphaned Jamaican baby's life unfurls in ways unexpected. Adopted by an elderly white couple, this child named Cass is raised in an all-white neighborhood, a stark contrast to his vibrant Caribbean roots. As he grows, he becomes a paradoxical figure in Britain, feared and respected in equal measure. Cass's journey is a relentless battle against daily racist bullying, a harsh reality that molds him into a formidable figure. A fateful day witnesses years of suppressed anger erupt in a violent burst, marking the genesis of Cass's addiction to the adrenaline of fighting. His reputation grows, the respect he earns steeped in fear and awe. However, this life of violence doesn't come without a price. An assassination attempt leaves him riddled with bullets, his survival a testament to his indomitable spirit. But this near-death experience precipitates a profound dilemma: to follow the path of vengeance, as the unforgiving streets have taught him, or to renounce his violent past. "Cass" is a riveting tale of resilience and identity, based on a true story. It's an exploration of a man caught between the seductive allure of power and the possibility of redemption; a life lived in the shadows of society, yet powerful enough to cast its own.
