Drama about a Borstal boy, set in 50's Nottingham. A long distance race. Real time. Follow one runner, alone with his thoughts. Colin is defiant. A young rebel, inhabiting the no-man's land of detention centres and young offenders' institutes, as his steady running rhythm transports him over a harsh, frost-bitten earth.
