Featuring an incredible original soundtrack from lauded musician, producer and visual artist Johnny Jewel (Drive, Twin Peaks: The Return), we follow Daniel (Bacon – Brighton, White Lines), a sensitive young man who has recently moved to London and has landed, what appears from the outside, to be the ideal job.
As he climbs the career ladder, Daniel is finding life harder and harder as he struggles with his demons. The death of his mother, and fall out with his father has left him reeling and his overbearing boss Harry (John Sackville – The Crown, The Wedding Date), is making his life even more difficult with his brutish behaviour and insistence on Daniel being ‘one of the lads’. Bullied to join in on debauched nights out, Daniel doesn’t feel he belongs in this world…When co-worker, Blue (Beatrice May – Rabb.it, A Mother’s Ruin), walks into his life at exactly the right moment, she introduces Daniel to another way of life.
