Synopsis:

Writer/director Guy Myhill makes his feature debut with this British drama. After leaving school 16-year-old Goob Taylor (Liam Walpole) goes to spend the summer with his mum Janet (Sienna Guillory), working in her cafe and pumpkin fields. He has to face challenges of the adult world as his relationship with his mother becomes strained due to the presence of her new boyfriend Gene Womack (Sean Harris), a cruel, womanising stock-car racer. Meanwhile, Goob falls for Eva (Marama Corlett), a foreign field worker who helps him to imagine a better life.

Young Goob, 16 years old, returns home to his mother where he grew up in the countryside, between a small restaurant and a field of pumpkins. His mother's new companion and Goob don't get along. This summer Goob will mature in many ways, dealing with a girl in the stock-car circuit, a gay cousin who dances, and problems with a seasonal woman fieldworker.

A long hot summer in rural Norfolk and a rough coming of age for Goob Taylor,fighting with brutal,womanizing stock car racer Gene Womack for his mother's attention ,and falling for the exotic charms of a pretty foreign field worker.
