Love and art escaping the past in 1920s London. London, 1924. Evan Calver is enjoying a quiet pint, when he notices a man smiling at him across the bar.

When he discovers that Milo is a man like himself, he hopes that friendship might become more. But as Evan and Milo grow ever closer, can they escape the fears of the past to find their future happiness?
