Franky (Vicky Knight), a 23-year-old nurse, lives with her large family in an East London borough. Obsessed with a thirst for revenge and a need to assign blame and guilt for a traumatic fire that happened 15 years ago, she is unable to build any meaningful relationship until she falls in love with one of her patients – Florence (Esmé Creed-Miles). They escape to the coast where Florence lives with her more open-minded patchwork family. There, Franky finds the emotional shelter to deal with the grudges and scars of the past.
