Synopsis
Kev, Jamal and Ryan used to run together in the winning school relay team. Now they are running just to stand still on the huge housing estate where they live. Newly released from Feltham, hard-man Kev is trying to go straight, but it’s difficult when you find your friend has taken your place as leader of the pack. Everyone is toughing it out, including Kev’s schoolgirl kid sister, Tash, whose pint-sized swagger has some – but not all of them-fooled at school.
