Anuvahood - parody mocks convention.
What is re-presented?
The youth are represented as immature, very stereotypical and comical. Anuvahood’ dismantles a pantheon of street stereotypes with acid one-liners and energy levels that are off the chart. Deacon plays K, a vain MC whose lack of success leads him to try his luck as a drug dealer. When his money and gear are pinched by vainer, even more deluded lisping meathead Tyrone (Richie Campbell), K must show his community and family what he’s worth. It’s a bit juvenile and some of the racial and sexual stereotypes are spiteful. Although, the way it has been represented in the film makes it hilarious and entertaining.
