The story begins with John’s last day in primary school, where he faces bullying from Canta ([Gary Milligan]) of the Hardridge Paka Gang. His brother, Benny ([Stephen McCole]), who leads the Young Car-D gang, takes steps to punish Canta, setting the stage for John’s early encounters with gang rivalry.
