The East End of London, 1930. Work is scarce, food is in short
supply and there is political unrest on the streets. But in the
face of all this hardship, there's always friendship. Becky, Bernie
and Rose - three best friends from very different backgrounds - are
working hard to establish themselves in pre-war Spitalfields.
Becky, the daughter of a Jewish tailor, wants to become a nurse,
but her father has more traditional plans for her. Aching to leave
the East End and travel the world, Bernie feels trapped by her vast
family of poor Irish dock workers. And then there is Rose. Tiny and
thin, she lives with her drunken mother and a revolving selection
of surrogate fathers who exploit and brutalise them both. But at
least the girls have each other and, as Europe begins to drift
towards another war, their friendships become ever more crucial as
each one of them fights for their place in an ever-changing,
frightening, new world. One way or another, love will pull them
through . . .
