“Endlessly charming…witty and warmhearted, it's a feel-good movie that never seems forced”
—Aaron Hillis, The Village Voice
Acclaimed British director Shane Meadows (This Is England) delivers this charming ode to young friendship, which follows the unlikely pairing of Tomo, a homeless runaway from Nottingham, and Marek, a Polish immigrant who lives with his father in Somers Town. When Marek agrees to let Tomo move into his room, unbeknownst to his father, the pair work odd jobs for an eccentric neighbor and compete for the attention of Maria, a beautiful young French waitress. But it's only a matter of time before Marek's dad discovers what's going on. Winner of the Michael Powell Award for best new British feature film at the Edinburgh International Film Festival.
