In the Black Country in the 1950's, ex-boxer Norman Alonso is a determined and humble Jamaican who has moved to Britain with his wife, to secure a brighter future for themselves and their children. Blighted with unexpected illness and racism, Norman and his family are resilient in the face of such hostilities, but are all too awaare that they will need more than just hope to survive. At the turn of the millenium, Jesse seeks a fresh start in London - escaping from a broken immediate family, a repressive religious community and the desolate, disempowered Black Country - but finds himself at a loss for a new centre of gravity, and turns to sex work to create new notions of love, fatherhood and spirituality.
