Common (2014)
Three kids grab a lift from a friend's brother for the purpose of going to beat up another one, but a bystander winds up getting stabbed and all four boys are being charged under “joint enterprise.”
The story is at its most powerful when focused on the bereaved parents. The young -- oblivious -- driver’s story is also interesting, but it’s so obviously got a political agenda (England’s joint enterprise law is unFAIR) that, though seemingly an accurate assessment of the law, it was kind of difficult to let myself get lost in it.
