Danny is low, and falling. He sweeps up in a factory and has split from his family. Worse, he gets seven kinds of it kicked out of him in front of his girls. But from this destruction, Danny’s reconstruction begins.
Louis (“as cool as the snowman’s gonads” played by Colin Salmon, one-time potential black James Bond) and his guys, who run the local nightclub door, take him under their wing. They become his family.
