Anyone can learn maps and battles. Geezer, I feel it! I live it! I''m giving everything to this beautiful, wild, absolutely pure British thing. Like, do you know what it took to get here, man? Stevie is a disillusioned academic who once wrote an unfashionable book on youth movements in Britain, now struggling to cope after a painful break-up. His misery is interrupted by Jimmy who lands unexpectedly on his doorstep beaming with excitement. Jimmy is 100% Mod: oversized military parka, fitted Italian suit, dessy boots, pork pie hat. The full package. Jimmy is seeking asylum in the UK. With just a few days before the substantive interview that''s going to decide his fate, the stakes are high. So he came up with a brilliant plan. A plan that''s going to work against all odds. It has to work. He can''t go back. And Stevie has an important part to play.
