Summaries

Neighborhood tensions arise when rambunctious Baines family moves next door to reclusive Abbots, clashing over home distillery and unruly teens while matriarch tries mediating the feud.

In 1970s English suburbia, middle-aged homeowner Sid Abbot just wants to get on with building his illegal whiskey still, but is frustrated by his work-shy son and otherworldly daughter. When rude, arrogant Ronald Baines and his family move in next door, garden-fence hostilities soon commence.—Simon Shearn <[email protected]>
