Plot:
The public is disillusioned with traditional politicians and the “Establishment”. Many believe in new optimistic rhetoric from a firebrand socialist party, the Progressive Social Alliance.
Others put their faith in a new populist far-right movement, the New Britain Party (NBP), headed by former newspaper baron Dominic Drummond (Bruce Payne) who is the British equivalent of Trump.
Five left-leaning friends gather to watch the TV coverage as the election results pour in and to celebrate the expected win of a female equivalent of Jeremy Corbyn. It’s a drink-fueled night that should be a massive celebration of victory.
But outside, far-right NBP supporters are rioting and claiming the election has been rigged. as the police lose control, three people desperately seek shelter from the violence and knock at the door…
