When a disgraced city-boy is released from prison after being convicted of insider trading, he tries to rebuild his life in his home town and reconnect with his estranged wife and child. Unable to return to the city he finds manual work in the kitchen of a local restaurant. Returning to the boxing club where he trained as a teenager, he learns of a £10k winner-takes-all unlicensed boxing match and challenges the undefeated prizefighter for a chance to win the cash.

Principal photography took place in March 2023, with additional shooting in May and June 2023. The final block of shooting was completed in March 2024.

Made on a  low budget with a hugely talented cast and crew, I am incredibly proud of what we achieved.
