After five years away from Liverpool, Clara Reynolds has finally managed to distance herself from her troubled past and the criminal family she left behind. But when her notorious father, Gerry, summons her home with the news that he is dying, Clara reluctantly returns to a world she thought she had escaped. Reunited with her volatile younger sister Danika and a colourful collection of criminals, friends and old acquaintances, Clara finds herself surrounded by family rivalries, dangerous schemes and increasingly chaotic situations. Determined not to be dragged back into the family business, she soon discovers that escaping the Reynolds family is considerably easier said than done. Set in Liverpool, a darkly comic British crime film about family, loyalty, bad decisions and the consequences of trying to leave your past behind.
