London, 1964. Two rival youth cults emerge - the mods and the rockers - with explosive consequences. For Jimmy and his sharp suited, pill popping, scooter-riding mates, being a mod is a way of life, it's their generation. Together they head off to Brighton for an orgy of drugs, thrills and violent confrontation against the rockers. Will Jimmy emerge a hero or will he be disillusioned by his way of life? "I don't wanna be like everybody else, that's why I'm a mod, see?" Jimmy.
