Dug Out

In 1944, a black American GI is shot dead. In 1974 on the same Bristol street, an IRA bomb explodes. Both events have a powerful impact on teenage clubbers Sammy, Leo, Sasha, Rae, Holly and Gloria. They meet each week at The Dug Out: a place of escape and promise, where dreams are shared, secrets revealed, battles fought and identities forged. With a glorious soundtrack of ska, reggae, funk and 1940s black American jive, The Dug Out is an uplifting tale of young lives in 70s Britain, set against a classic love story of thirty years earlier.4 women, 4 men
