2014, 90 minutes
Exploring themes of loyalty, character and violence within modern youth culture,
The scene is set in a local wood with a tent and some cans of lager, an all too familiar scene of urban culture. Then one by one over the wall emerge the characters of the drama. Johnson plays the troubled Ashley, the bullish leader of the group who the others cower and look up to. Then Adam arrives with his older brother Jamie, a local lad who has been at Oxford University studying music. As he states: 'I just came here for a drink and a laugh.', but with the attitude shown by Ashley, Jamie is forced to fiercely stand by his morals. And so begins an engrossing divulging of Ashley's character, and how all the players affect his perception. With Jamie in place as a symbol of maturity the group dynamic is changed and Ashley doesn't know how to handle it. Then with the arrival of the local head-case, the story takes a dramatic turn.
