Director Ken Loach won the Jury Prize at Cannes for this bitter sweet comedy. The story follows protagonist Robbie as he sneaks into hospital to visit his young girlfriend Leonie and hold his newborn son Luke for the first time. Overwhelmed by the moment, he swears that Luke will not have the same tragic life he’s had. Escaping a prison sentence by the skin of his teeth, he's given one last chance. While serving a community service order, he meets Rhino, Albert and Mo who, like him, find it impossible to find work because of their criminal records. Little did Robbie imagine how turning to drink might change their lives, not cheap fortified wine, but the best malt whiskies in the world...
