Beautiful Thing

synopsis


A long hot summer on a housing estate in South London. Jamie is bunking off school, whilst his mother Sandra juggles job promotion and her relationship with her hippy-dippy boyfriend Tony. Next door lives sassy Leah, who spends her days listening to Mama Cass records. In the same block, Jamie's class mate Ste, although popular and sporty at school, is bullied by his drunken father. One day, Ste seeks refuge in Sandra's flat and ends up sleeping head-to-toe with Jamie... Hettie MacDonald's delightful feature debut charts the seemingly unlikely romance between Ste and Jamie, from nervous first glances to ingenious use of Peppermint Foot Lotion.
