In the summer of 1994, against the backdrop of a ban on outdoor rave parties in the UK, two best friends from Scotland, Johnno and Spanner, embark on a quest for adventure and escape. They head out to an illegal rave, where they hope to experience the best night of their lives and find a sense of freedom and belonging.
