My Brother the Devil is a 2012 British crime drama film written and directed by Sally El Hosaini.

Elder brother Rash is fiercely protective of Mo, giving him a TV when he does well and encouraging him to stay in school.

However Mo begins to want to emulate Rash who works as a low level drug dealer, and is able to use money from his job to pay for small luxuries to make their lives more comfortable.

Mo, growing suspicious that Rash is not in fact working, goes to Sayyid's home to spy and sees the two men undressed and realizes what is going on.

He confronts his former friends telling them that he will kill Demon in exchange for them allowing Mo to walk away from the drug business and his family to stay safe and unharmed.

Mo goes with them but becomes suspicious when he sees plastic gloves, the kind that the gang uses for killings, hanging out of one of the men's pockets.

His friend pulls a gun on the woman who answers the door, and when she screams Rash and Sayyid come running out of his building.
