About
Rent on Apple TV+ or buy on Apple TV+.
During a long, hot summer on the Thamesmead Estate in Southeast London, three teenagers edge towards adulthood.
Concrete concrete towers and sweltering London heat set the stage for a tender, quiet rebellion against urban isolation. Amidst the brutalist architecture of a housing estate, a budding romance offers a much-needed breath of fresh air.
