Synopsis:

A fierce and contemporary urban drama, Baseline tells a story of love, loss and loyalty. Charting the rise and fall of Danny as he tries to build an empire for himself on the East End club scene, it's a provocative insight into the brutal realm of gang rivalry. Working as a bouncer at The Baseline, the popular grime club, Danny is used to breaking up fights and managing drunken kids, but is abruptly hurtled into the underworld he has tried so hard to avoid when he rescues Terry the club owner and local gang leader, from a hit man. His loyalty earns him a quick promotion to club manager but only with the Faustian condition he first turn a blind eye, and eventually actively participate in, the bleak deals being done off the dance-floor by Terry's number 2, Joe. After meeting a beautiful nurse, Jessica he attempts to break free of Terry's grip by setting up on his own, but he soon finds out there's no such thing as a clean slate when his best friend Paul is released from jail with a grudge against Danny and a debt to Terry he cannot possibly repay. Danny soon has to make the ultimate sacrifice when he has to choose between loyalty, morality and his last chance for freedom.

The Baseline is the centre of the East London grime club scene and the queue regularly stretches around the block. Danny works on the door - breaking up fights and managing drunk kids. However, when he rescues Terry, the club owner and local gang leader, from a hitman, Danny is suddenly plunged deep into an underworld he had tried so hard to avoid. Danny is promoted to manager, but only on the condition that he turns a blind eye to the shady goings on both on and off the dance-floor. Danny and his girlfriend Jessica dream of setting up their own club, but Danny is forced to make the ultimate sacrifice when he has to choose between loyalty, morality and his own dreams of escape.
