Scott Martin is your average 18 year old.  He's happy with his friends Paul, Craig and Jasper. He's also happy with his girlfriend, Frankie. Scott's fallen completely in love with her, and believes she feels the same. She doesn't. Scott's friends soon find out that Frankie is seeing another guy, Cris. And, as any good friends would, they tell Scott, who of course is devastated. It's at this point that Paul jumps in and decides Frankie needs a taste of some kind of medicine: it's not her own, but hey, it works! So, the four friends set out to get cruel, yet comical revenge on Frankie.

Sami, a Syrian refugee in the UK, and Bryony, an aimless young librarian, embark on a highly personal quest to preserve a bell from a demolished Christian church. What begins as a civic protest quickly becomes a criminal case when they accidentally near fatally injure a security guard, and find themselves on the run from the police. However, our accidental heroes’ fate is sealed by a kindly police sergeant who is moved by their mission, and our odd-couple achieve their goal of saving the bell and reminding the town they both call home about the importance of remembering its own story.
