Kidulthood had a production budget of £600,000. This budget was mostly provided by director Menhaj Huda and producer friend George Issac. Why would this film have found it difficult to get finance from a production company?
- subject matter thats in vovled
- being a gritty social realist film, people might not want to watch disturbed teenagers and brutal study of disaffected teens and their behaviour and what the dtreets are like in london, some people would hate to beleive it and maybe still be such situations and dissaprove.
- Kidulthood was their first film as a result of this other companys would not wan to throw their money at them incase the film did not make a profit and failed, and if this would have happened, they would have lost alot of their money.
- unknown cast
Some of this budget was funded by the UK Film Council. How much was given to the film for production and distribution? What criteria did the film have to meet to be awarded the funds?

Revolver Entertainment distributed Kidulthood. Although heavily promoted there was limited distribution of the film, why?
Kidulthood made just £454,000 at the cinema. It was far more successful on DVD. Why would this film be more successful on DVD than in the cinema?
