Kidulthood – $920,000 budget

Kidulthood came to the world in 2006 from the mind of Noel Clarke. It gave viewers a stark look at the life of poor and lower class citizens in poor west London. It’s famously hard for independent films to get funding in the UK, but this ended up making more than $2 million at the box office.

The film left a lasting impact on audiences and a sequel, aptly named Adulthood, was released in 2008. In 2016, a third film called Brotherhood completed the trilogy.
