Description
Frankie Gibbs, an unambitious adolescent on Universal Credit, wants nothing more than to keep his brother Dazzler out of the North Wales care system. Poverty isn’t Frankie’s only obstacle, as their boozing, coke-head single-parent father, Guy Gibbs, heaps misery on their lives through systematic abuse and never-ending wild parties.
Dazzler’s bright, but at just twelve years old, isn’t mentally prepared for the turmoil unfolding around him. Not least once Justin, an acquaintance from Frankie’s school days now turned drug dealer, rocks up on the scene. Such gnarly environments either make or break a kid, but where do you turn when everyone’s lights are off?
