Over the course of one night in modern Britain, the lives of two working-class families — one white, one Muslim — become fatally intertwined amid rising social tension, forcing each person to confront the fear, anger and humanity within those around them.

A disgraced ex investment banker from the City of London sees an opportunity to rebuild his life, but as fortune rises, relationships fracture and the consequences become impossible to escape. A young woman living just outside Canary Wharf tries to breakout of her unfortunate financial situation by aligning with a disgraced ex banker in the pursuit of easy money just when things escalate.

In a scorched, post-apocalyptic world, survival is fragile and trust is dangerous. When a hardened loner discovers a naive man with the mind of a child, the two form an uneasy alliance, their journey colliding with a sinister school where the once students (now adults) are still ruled by the authority figures of the past. Fear, secrets, and the threats prevent them from exploring whats beyond their gated community.
