(Des) Realismo social con juventud violenta dentro y fuera del colegio, en versión escosesa. Las 'small faces' son muy diversas, atraídas perversamente entre sí, la debilidad íntima de los líderes violentos, los pliegues familiares, buenos detalles

Three teenage brothers, gang-member Bobby, troubled mama's boy Charlie and self-assured prankster Lex, reside in a downtrodden section of Glasgow, Scotland, circa 1968. But while Bobby and Charlie are beginning to experience the power of raging hormones, the story focuses on Lex, who begins a downward spiral after he accidentally shoots the leader of Bobby's gang. Lex's cockiness and immaturity unfortunately prevent him from understanding the effect his subsequent crimes will have on both himself, and on those around him. Brutally candid.
