In 1970s Glasgow, a 12-year-old boy carries a heavy secret as his family struggles through poverty and a citywide rubbish strike. Seeking escape from home and the streets, he drifts toward the canal, forms tentative bonds with a lonely older teen and an unusually innocent neighbor, and clings to small glimpses of hope beyond his neighborhood.
