Charting the course of an interracial affair between black Liverpudlian boxer Abe (Steve Ako) and Jess (Joeline Garner Joel), the daughter of his scrap yard boss, this promising independent feature from director/producer/writer/editor Charles Teton looks very, impressive considering its sub Pig Farmer budget, and has the courage to go it's own stylized way among the recent crop of other D.I.Y British features so desperate to tap into the mainstream.
