Joe Guy

• By: Roy Williams

Joe Guy is Roy Williams’ powerful portrayal of the tensions between Caribbean and African communities in today’s Britain.

As a young man, Joseph is taunted by the cooler British-Caribbean kids for his accent and his humility. Ditching his Ghanaian heritage, Joseph becomes Joe, an icon of urban Black identity. Premier League clubs, venal agents and one-night women all want a piece, but one night in a hotel room with the lovely Lauren and it all gets out of control. As the abyss opens, joe discovers how much he has lost and how little of him remains.
