Write a short summary of what happens in the film

The 3 minute film - ‘Nothing Beats a Londoner’ was shot on the streets of London and features 258 real young Londoners from boroughs such as Dalston, Peckham and Brixton alongside cameos from stars such as Skepta, Mo Farah, Giggs and Harry Kane. It shows the passion, determination and unique London spirit of these young people that is communicated through humour and wit synonymous with Britain’s capital. It uses this cultural reference point as a backdrop to celebrate real kids from the city that are living, training and pursuing passions in a huge variety of sports and highlights challenges they overcome try and achieve sporting success. The interchangeable link between music, sport and fashion and film is used throughout the film to engage its wide audience.
