Stella is one of a brood of school-age prostitutes, working the streets of London and living in dingy B&B accomodations. She exists as a virtual prisoner of her sleazy, paternalistic pimp, Mr. Peters. Whilst she has run away from her childhood troubles in Glasgow, memories of her god-fearing Auntie Aileen and herstand-up cxomedian father continue to haunt her. It takes an attack on one of her girlfriends for Stella to realise that she must make her escape from her destructive surroundings.
