Brief synopsis of I.D.
Reece Dinsdale stars as John, an undercover cop who finds himself immersed in the world of football hooliganism in this football film that deals entirely with what happens when the players and fans are off the field. Focusing on the fictional East London Shadwell FC club, the film follows as John and three other officers as they attempt to infiltrate the ranks of this club's particularly violent fans, and ascertain the identity of the leaders of the Shadwell hooligans. However, the cops become unexpectedly drawn into the hooligan lifestyle, with John becoming increasingly obsessed with the violence and camaraderie, so much so that he alienates his wife. A gripping and realistic look at the life of a hooligan, I.D. is a hilarious, frightening, and tremendously entertaining film.

A frenetic and gritty foray into topicality that avoids exploitation but not melodrama and overstatement.
