Overview

Sunderland, against all of the odds, beat Leeds United in the 1973 FA Cup final, and memories of that triumphant city are revived when a photographer revisits his home town. But any ideas about moving back are sorely tested when his rose-tinted recollections clash with the realities of life in Sunderland. An engaging comedy-drama that explores our need to belong.
