Tells the story of lust and disappointment as a twenty-something waits for her adult life to begin.

After a day of boozing and cruising, narrowboat novice (Gabe) and his craggy, veteran ‘engine whisperer’ (Fred) regale Gabe’s uptight school friend (Harry) with a litany of toilet horror stories that draw a stark line between the haves and the have nots on the London canals.

Lured to a beautiful but remote farmhouse by a deceitful relative, a family decides to move in.
