After his parents divorce, a sensitive teenager loses the house with a garden where he grew up and moves with his mother to a dreary estate of tower blocks. His mother sinks into depression, his father, now living on the coast with a young lover, visits less and less, and the boy makes no new friends. Football, at which he shines, is his only refuge, until a new coach arrives and brings harm that nearly breaks him.
