Plot Summary

Rejected by his family for his queerness and oppressed by his country for the same, reckless Libyan teenager, Britannia, gets an interview at the British Embassy, taking him one step closer to his childhood dream of stepping foot on Manchester's Canal Street, the pulsing queer centre of the world. Being British and gay is everything he's ever dreamed of. But he needs his passport. Plagued by memories of his oppressive Baba but supported by his found family of queers, he sneaks back to the family house to retrieve it. There, an unexpected discovery strikes deep and forces him to question where his dreams truly lie.
