With the swimming pools, drugs, girls and parties come a bunch of spoilt young brats who seem to take their cues from 'American History X' and black inner city gangster movies.

Plotwise; headcase Jake owes lots of drug money to drug lord's son John and John kidnaps Jake's younger brother as a hostage. Kid br find out more...

On the morning of September 11th 2001 United Flight 93 set off from Newark airport; not long after two passenger jets were flown into the World Trade Center in New York and, as the news reached those on board, it became clear that they also were at the mercy of terrorists.

In 1978 Aldo Moro, the Italian Prime Minister, was abducted by a faction of the Red Brigade to be held culpable for his crimes against humanity. This tense dramatisation of events follows one of the kidnappers, Chiara, as she moves from blind conviction to confused questioning of the Brigade's actions, and indeed her own motivation.
