A poignant and personal look beneath the surface of a seemingly thriving part of Britain – the market town of Hebden Bridge in West Yorkshire. Filmmaker Jez Lewis returns to his childhood home and reveals a reality very much at odds with the positive image projected to the outside world. Drink, drugs and suicide are rife amongst former friends, a situation to which he cannot turn a blind eye. Courtesy of Bungalow Town Productions.
