Synopsis:

Justin is looking for a way out. In a brutal world where gangland violence, drug dealing and street fighting is a way of life, getting out of the game was never going to be easy. Especially with mates like Tommy, Sean and Billy. But as Justin finds hope from an unlikely source, Tommy's drug debts spiral out of control, dragging everyone into a world where only survival matters. Blending the surreal with the very real, Zebra Crossing is a powerful, disturbing, adrenaline-packed journey. This fast paced and at times utterly terrifying story is the tale of one man's struggle to break free, but as the pressure mounts and the stakes are raised, escape seems ever further away. And for Justin, time is running out...

From the moment I was born I cried for a month... Eighteen years on, and Justin is no nearer the truth. And in a world that increasingly doesn't care, maybe just simply relying on friendship is not enough? Especially with friends like Billy, Sean and Tommy. Set amongst the backdrop of the towering, concrete-clad estates of south London 'Zebra Crossings' blends a diverse mixture of characters that all share one thing in common: The incredible loneliness of living alongside 7 million other people. Blending the surreal, and very real, we take an intense journey in search of friendship, belief and religion. With a lacklustre father and estranged mother, Justin's only source of perennial control comes from an unlikely source, his bed-ridden sister Suzanne. But Justin needs is a real mentor, a father figure, someone who can provide guidance before it's all too late. In steps Marcus, unlike anyone Justin has ever known before, calm, soft, assured - but does he want something from Justin? Meanwhile, Tommy's abandonment issues haunt him once again, and his class-A drug addiction has sent him into full destruction mode. Also, the pressure from a rival gang has reached exploding point - as there is certainly no space for two crews in this neighbourhood. Justin must find the answer to it all, and quick.

Justin, Tommy, Sean and Billy are friends surviving in the dangerous world of gangs, drugs and violence. But whereas Justin dreams of escaping to a better life, Tommy debts are forcing further into the murky depths.
