In Port Talbot in 1942, Richie Jenkins is an intense schoolboy caught between the pressures of his struggling family, a devastating war and his dreams. His natural talents for drama catch the attention of his teacher Phillip Burton and both their lives are changed forever. Based on the remarkable true story of how the poor son of a miner became Richard Burton, one of the greatest actors the world has ever known, this is a timely tale of nurturing talent wherever it grows.
