This is a tender love story set during a hot summer on a South-East London housing estate. Jamie Gangel (Glen Berry), a relatively unpopular lad who bunks off school to avoid football, lives next door to Ste Pearce (Scott Neal), a more popular athletic lad but who is frequently beaten up by his father and older brother. They got together and somehow become fond of each other… from initial lingering glances to their irrefutable love, which so magnificently illustrated at the end of the film.
