The romance between two childhood friends anchors this dramedy set in 1980s London. Omar is the son of a once-famous Pakistani journalist, caring for his father and running a laundrette owned by his more-successful uncle. When Omar crosses paths with his childhood friend Johnny, now a street punk, he offers Johnny a job and they resume a romantic relationship they had begun years ago when they were students. Along the way, they try to fix up the laundrette, get entangled with the illegal drug business, and deal with family expectations as they navigate the complex racial, political, economic, and social realities of the era.
