Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Ron Peck's crime thriller is set in a nightclub in London's Docklands over the course of a single evening. It's the late 80s and the redevelopment of the East End is well underway. A glitzy nightclub is drawing the crowds, but it's also a cover for ruthless criminals. There's a turf war going on, with the area's long-established gangsters, led by Frank (Ray MacAnally), being challenged by ambitious wide boys like Paul (Ian Sears). And when an American called Chuck (Martin Landau) arrives in town looking to invest a massive amount of money, everyone's out for a piece of the action - and they're not afraid to spill blood in order to get it.
