Synopsis

In the gritty underbelly of 1970s Britain. A zealous cadre of revolutionaries finds their voice within the decrepit walls of a squatted house. Through their eyes, we witness the visceral struggle for change, the camaraderie that fuels their cause, and the betrayals that threaten to extinguish their flame.
