Black Joy plot

Ben is an immigrant from Guyana who flies to England. In the harsh London borough of Brixton, he looks like a nerd and is soon seen as an easy target by thieves. Ben loses his wallet and most of his money within minutes. While roaming the streets, he encounters the con man Dave. Although they become somewhat friends and Dave offers to show Ben around, Ben realizes that in the game of life he is still a rookie with no friends who really care about him.
