A film that will have you truly trembling during some of its sequences. With a strong sense of 'less-is-more' style filmmaking - the film is infused with a haunting and symbolic use of imagery. The use of sound is implicitly effective and the cast is nothing short of extraordinary: particularly the way Conrad Khan portrays his character Tyler's transformation.
Without a hint of exaggeration... this film would be the perfect film to show in schools. County lines is a very real epidemic in the UK. This film really epitomises the extreme and unsettling lifestyle that children are being unfairly groomed into.

Delicately poignant. Toe-curling in moments, hands over eyes in others, grounded but nothing short of absolutely gripping. You were right there with them, all the time, which is a testament to the script and the cast.
Khan was phenomenal and gave outstanding performances throughout. This is completely moving and an ode to British filmmaking. The atmosphere built through the expressionist and nuanced cinematography was seriously next level and it's how it's been filmed that makes the picture so evocative.
That cold, bleak hue and fuzzy grain of a winter in working England is something I know strikes many of us watching. The complex interpersonal nature of family and our parents during adolescence. The nativity of youth and the regret and sorrow we so often feel. Craving that deep hug from a maternal figure, crying into their arms.
County Lines is a truly beautiful and timeless piece by Blake; a necessary work of catharsis, melancholy, bravery and poignancy.

I hope they are showing this to the teens in school, to educate them into understanding that this is a very dangerous path to follow and that the dealers treat them as an acceptable loss to their business, as many of the kids are fooled into believing they can be as rich and looking crisp with nice clothes jewellery and watches as the one who grooms them, when all these groomers are doing is putting all the dangers and risks on young recruited kids so they keep themselves under the radar with the law. I hope with the governments new laws and acts passed they tackle this practise full on and give very long sentences to groomers and drug dealers alike who use and abuse these kids. We can only hope as we need alot of funding for the authorities (police, social services, youth associations, councils, schools non lenient judges and especially the government) to eradicate this growing disease of our modern society. Great acting by Conrad
Khan and brilliant writing direction by Henry Blake and his team.
I was set a challenge by a so called friend to find the bleakest film ever made. Will our friendship survive this torture? Well I've found it .... The bleakest film of all time. County Lines 2019 BBCIPlayer . It probably hits a nerve because those are the kids and families that I've been living within my neighbourhood and I've watched due to lack of funding and government drive with ever decreasing levels of success over the years spiral further down into poverty .
Desperate times calls for desperate measures.
County Lines is the term used for drug runners working in other cities or rural areas away from their own home patch, principally because they have no police record in that area and because they are young kids. Great acting from all the cast, all unknowns apart from one lad who is now in Eastenders. It's a simple but very real story, 9/10 (thinking about it THE ROAD is the bleakest movie if all time)

Remarkable acting, script and life story. Would have been a 10/10 if it had not been for the peculiar old-fashioned screen dimensions, which made it look more like a 80s TV movie than a modern widescreen film.
The way in which Tyler is recruited into the County Lines drug dealing network, becoming the 'Jim Line' is both convincing and disturbing. The film shows the social problems that lie behind the recruitment of youngsters into these criminal schemes, even the school life is shown -- and I have to say I would not want to be a teacher in that school. There's a lack of explanation of certain things. I'm not sure a US viewer would know that a PRU is a pupil referral unit.

- CuriosidadesThe film is set around Caledonian Road in London where notorious drug teenage dealer Henry Hicks was active, until he was knocked of his scooter while running away from the police.
- Erros de gravaçãoIn the first scene Tyler is getting his sister, Aliyah, ready for school & asks her if she wants her hair in a top knot or a pony tail. She says a top knot but in the next scene they're going to school and she's got a pony tail.
