It’s 1964. England has shaken off its post-war gloom and the world is full of possibilities.

Best friends Sandra and Linda live on a housing estate in Essex. They are mods: they have the music, the coffee bar and Ready Steady Go! on a Friday night. Sandra is at work, Linda has a Saturday job. They look set. But the world is changing rapidly, and both girls have difficult choices to make. As Sandra blindly pursues a proposal, Linda finds herself drawn to casuses she knows are worth fighting for.

But when Sandra’s quest leads her to local bad boy Danny, she lands both her and Linda in more trouble than they bargained for…
