21 MILES revisits the much-loved protagonist of 29 LOCKS two years
after his canal boat adventure as a fifteen-year-old. Older, wiser
and more confident, life is going well for the former gang member
who’d escaped a brutal life of criminal exploitation. But when
Donny and his best friend Zoe plan a day trip to France ahead of
their sixth form exams, Donny loses his passport and is arrested as
an ‘illegal’ migrant. To survive, he must rely on the help of
unaccompanied teenage refugees, living rough in the dunes east of
Calais. Can Donny use his boat skills to cross the busiest shipping
channel in the world and make it home? A fast-paced, tender and
unflinching depiction of teenage friendship and resilience against
the odds.
