      A bittersweet tale of 1950s Omagh It's 1959. Adam Faith is topping the hit parade and eighteen year old Jim McGrath is getting ready to leap from school into adult life. But what sort of life? His mother and his uncle, Father Frank, are pushing him towards becoming a priest. On the other hand, Jim's friend Presumer Livingstone seems to be getting a lot more out of life. Whether it's settling old scores with Councillor Traynor or coping with the brutal Brother Dickey, Presumer refuses to be cowed by God or man. And then there's Christy Wenton - a girl who talks about undressing people with her eyes...It's time for Jim to choose between respectability and friendship, the spirit and the flesh.
