A documentary that takes an unflinching stance on what it is like to live in one of the UK’s most deprived areas. Filmed over a year in Great Grimsby this series of provocative films follows a group of locals facing hard times and tells the harsh reality of how some people survive the effects of long-term unemployment.

Nobody in this series wants sympathy, but they do want to tell their story. In a succession of dramatic events we see the pressure of their situations take its toll and change their lives forever.
