Why not buy yourself an ipad 2 stand from ipad 2 accessories uk so you can sit back and watch Human Traffic. A British independent film directed and written by Justin Kerrigan, Human Traffic explores the lives of young people during the 1990’s in Wales. The story all takes place over one weekend in Cardiff focussing on five people in their 20’s and their wider social circle.

The film avoids the easy trap of moralising about 1990’s dance lifestyle, instead focussing on the “vibe, the venues and the mood” of the dance movement, allowing viewers to make their own judgements on it. The central character Nina’s 17 year old brother Lee enthuses within the first 25 minutes of the film, “I am about to be part of the chemical generation”. Narrated by one of the actors, John Simm, the film also saw the debt of Danny Dyer.

The film addresses the issue of work and unemployment. Jip, working at a clothes shop, is represented as a ‘wage slave’, especially in the scene where his boss, bearing a barcode on his forehead, anally rapes him covering his mouth with a banknote. Moff, preferring unemployment to working, constantly argues with his father concerning this preference.
