1974. Power cuts, strikes and boot-boy aggro on the terraces. Flares, Chopper bikes and beer at fourteen pence per pint.
Joe McCain, 17 and restless, is bored with the flatline tedium of a life that seems like it’s going nowhere. Enter Jane, moving to the beat of a music that Joe’s never heard, a vision of loveliness who opens the door to a whole world of sound, movement and all-nighter dancing at The Wigan Casino – the home of Northern Soul! Swept along on this tide of pulsating dance and lust, Joe finally finds somewhere he belongs and the acceptance and true love he yearns for.
Shimmy Marcus’ stylish, vibrant and generous coming-of-age tale captures, with infectious enthusiasm, the overwhelming attraction of being part of something – and the errors of judgement that can be born out of blind faith.
