Keith y Candice-Marie, una encantadora parejita de vegetarianos un poco cursis, deciden disfrutar de unas idílicas vacaciones en un camping, en contacto con la Naturaleza. Sus rígidas y estrictas nociones sobre la paz y la tranquilidad les crean conflictos con otros campistas, que tienen un concepto de la vida menos severo.
Britain, 1958. Restless at school and bored with his life, Jim leaves home to take a series of low-level jobs at a seaside amusement park, where he discovers a world of cheap sex and petty crime. But when that world comes to a shockingly brutal end, Jim returns home. As the local music scene explodes, Jim must decide between a life of adult responsibility or a new phenomenon called rock & roll.
