Folk

Description

Folk was always more than a youth group for Mark: it”s where he belongs, and where the friendships that have made him were forged. Straight talking Anna; beautiful, brilliant Zee; and Seb, who”s in a real band. But when Gerry, the group”s self-proclaimed ”thorn in the side of the establishment” leader tasks him to take a new member under his wing, Mark”s world goes into a spin. Who is this ”Jason” guy with his tracksuits, beats and chemical drugs? And why is everyone so in awe of him? Jason just isn”t ”Folk”. Then a wild camping trip brings Jason”s ”fresh start” to an abrupt end – and with it the collapse of Folk. Yet moving on turns out to be complicated. Set against a backdrop of DIY sound systems and tectonic shifts in society, FOLK is a bittersweet 1990s coming-of-age tale of friendship, fidelity and finding your own path.
