Beattie Bryant returns to her rural home in Norfolk, inflamed with political zeal from her time spent living in London. As the family anxiously prepares for the arrival of her firebrand activist boyfriend Ronnie, Beattie struggles to fit back into her old way of life.
As Beattie’s radical new ideals fail to land with her traditional family, the differences between young and old are laid bare.
