Adam has been brought up in a home and community that fosters racial hatred. Naseema is a girl from the same town, belonging to a new generation of Asian youth who have taken up the violence offered to them as a way of reclaiming the past. But what Adam and Naseema really share is a secret desire to break free of their small town and its inhibitions, something they discover while working together in a DIY store. At first resistant, they cannot avoid their mutual attraction, and they embark on a relationship which threatens to bring down their families as well as themselves.

Anton Bitel, Film4
An assured feature debut for Savage, even if the subplots are far more compelling than the central 'Romeo and Juliet' relationship.
