Comment A young man in an ad agency find release in his Mod life style with drugs and mopeds that culminates with a show down with the rockers. This has been likened to the classic Rebel Without A Cause, but from a British perspective. Love it or hate it, this reflects a period of Britain in the 1960's. This was funded and inspired by the Who trying to recreate the tensions of the Mods and Rockers in 1960's England and benefits from a sound track from the period as well as their songs.
