How the youth (collective identity) is represented in the movie kidulthood ?

Youth are represented very typically for inner city life  in the movie. The male characters in the film such as sam, trevor, jay etc. are represented very aggressively. Their characters where baggy clothes Tracksuits flat caps, typical city teenagers. They disregard common decency when out in public and their language is also the typical slang words that are disrespectful, rude and unnecessary. 'oi my size'  They also use a very aggressive tone when speaking, even to strangers - a good example of this was when they were in london going into shops and talking to the assistants and the public. Also the taxi driver when they refuse to pay. In one scene one of the boys steals alcohol from a shop and is very rude to the shopkeeper.
