In July 1983, Shaun is a troubled 12-year-old boy
who lives with his widowed mother and is frequently
antagonised in school and around town.
On the last day of the school year, Shaun
gets into a fight at school with a boy named Harvey
after Harvey insults him for wearing wide bell bottoms
and making an offensive joke about his father,
who was killed in the Falklands War.
On his way home, Shaun comes across
a gang of young skinheads led by Woody,
who feels sympathy for Shaun and
invites him to join the group.
