It's 1983 and school is out. Twelve-year old Shaun is a lonely boy growing up without his father in a grim coastal down. In the midst of summer boredom, Shaun befriends a group of local skinheads. With his pent-up rage and frustration, Shaun finds exactly what he wants in the gang: mischief, mayhem, and brotherhood. He also meets the volatile and boorish Combo, an older skinhead who sees himself in Shaun. Adopting Shaun as his protege, Combo leads the gang down a hate spewing path that culminates in an ierreversible act of violence.
