The swinging sixties haven’t quite hit the Brookes household. Two sisters, Elli and Arden Brookes, seem destined to play out their lives behind a chip shop counter in a dreary Manchester backwater. Torn between the old narrow life of their childhood and the thrilling ‘anything goes’ atmosphere of sixties rock and roll, the sisters find themselves faced with a heady mixture of new opportunities, optimism and romance. The sisters journey towards liberation is set against an exhilarating soundtrack of sixties music to echo the spirit of the era.
