Steve es un joven nacido en Glasgow que, tras salir de la cárcel, se traslada a Londres donde pretende iniciar una nueva vida trabajando en la construcción. El empleo está mal pagado y no le permite tener un sitio donde vivir, de manera que vaga de un lugar a otro sin encontrar estabilidad. Casualmente, conoce a Susan, una joven que, como él, vive a la deriva intentando darse a conocer como cantante. Juntos compartirán miedos, inquietudes, alegrías e ilusiones. Un drama que, con un toque de humor y romanticismo, logra conmover al espectador.

What a brilliant movie. All the elements are balances perfect - comedy, politics, plot and character development. As much as enjoyed Loaches latest movie I Daniel Blake, this is just more focused. I thought the rats in the movie were symbolic and worked well. The Loach has always nailed these movies I think shows his heart is in the right place and he want to always tell a story that has a real social point to make. Being set on site is perfect. I started work in the late 90s and work places were simular to this, and they were completely different to a few years later on. The poor and working class in Loach movies are not just raunchy animals in the pub where their onoy fun is alcohol like in other movies that try to be gritty.
A pretty good and excellently payed social critique about poverty and social exclusion in the UK.
It is a denouncing British society.
