Persistent Shadows
The Leather Bottle, a worn down pub, with torn up carpets, peeling wallpapers, and chairs that look like they'd fall apart if you stared at them hard enough. A thick cloud of cigarette smoke lingers in the air, you get used to it. But the Leather Bottle was a place of community for the people of Betteshanger, an escape from the chaos of the world outside. Join Paul, George, Sammy, Benny and Lucy. Five friends on their journey through the 1980s. Be plunged into the heart of the acid house rave scene, lowered into the mines of East Kent, and shipped out to sea to fight in the Falklands. As hope appears to dwindle out, we look to find a symbol. A light to guide us through the tunnel, but will it ever show us the way? Or abandon us in absolute darkness...
