Simon, an ambitious young journalist, is on the look out for a good news story. When James contacts him, Simon’s interest is piqued. What Simon ultimately discovers, however, is a longstanding feud involving one dead dog, two angry men and three slain sheep.
Against the advice of his editor, Simon senses that he might be able to act as a mediator between the pair. However, he quickly discovers that brokering a peace will be no easy task.

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.
