The film tells the story of Danny (Stephen Graham) and best friend Joseph (Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje), an unlikely pairing whose shared past makes them deeply loyal to one another. But when Danny is unable to repay his mounting debts to violent underworld boss Curtis (David O’Hara), a devastating series of events unfolds that will test the friends’ bonds of love and loyalty to the limit.
BEST LAID PLANS is shooting in Nottingham and the East Midlands for four weeks.
