Vida, a wealthy Jewish cellist from London, and Arthur, a working-class bike courier from Wales come from immensely different backgrounds. Their love is as passionate as it is uncompromisingly truthful, but their relationship is put to the test when they meet each other’s families and are forced to confront class and cultural differences. Graced with sensitive acting and a poignant script, and interspersed with quirky animated sequences and an excellent soundtrack, this modern-day retelling of Romeo and Juliet explores the ups and downs of a young couple in contemporary London.
