1973, a public toilet. nicky shaves his head. watched by an older man.

publicly, nicky is a neo-nazi. a skinhead. but in this room, that doesn’t matter. it’s not the first man he meets in a toilet, and it won’t be the last. all of them are worlds apart, yet here they are, together. even if they shouldn’t be.

spanning twenty years and inspired by a true story, foam puts the nature of identity and the consequences of extremist ideology against the backdrop of london’s skinhead and gay scenes of the 1970s and 1980s. with right-wing extremism again on the rise, foam confronts the flashpoint where the terrifyingly personal and the violently political collide.
