When Ricky and his family discover that they may have a chance to get out of debt and back into a home by working through a delivery service in England, they discover how tough the business can become and start to face a new set of struggles. - Kino International
Having tread water for a decade, working-class Ricky (Kris Hitchen) saw the offer of becoming a contractor courier as a chance for his small family to finally get ahead. However, between the job's out-of-pocket requirements, penalties for nonperformance, and 24/6 demands on his time, the fragile threads keeping the household together are inexorably pulled upon. Expectedly trenchant gut-punch to gig economy culture from Ken Loach co-stars Debbie Honeywood, Rhys Stone, Katie Proctor. 101 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English; Subtitles: English; audio commentary; featurette; image gallery; theatrical trailer.
