An intense portrait of friendship, betrayal and the birth of jungle music
Beats and Cold, two ambitious DJs, are gaining a serious reputation in the music industry. They have found a new sound jungle and it's going to be massive! At first the chemistry between them produces gold . . . but as Beats turns into an ambitious producer, and Cold, the 'bedroom genius', fights for the space to be a true artist, the tension builds beat by beat.
In the background are the boys' Trinidadian fathers, struggling together to make a life for their two sons, and caught up in the middle of their conflict. It is an intense portrait of friendship, betrayal and the impact one generation has on the next set against the backdrop of nineties Britain.
