The young Richard (Harry Lawtey, making a good fist of that sonorous voice) has a bleak future in his industrial Port Talbot home town. But his English teacher, Philip Burton (Toby Jones), sees promise in the would-be actor and becomes the mentor his drunken dad will never be. However, the lifelong demons that already assail Richard start to warp their relationship.
