The Rock ¿n Roll Kids

Dublin, 1970s and 80s.

Lizzy and Rocky are in their late teens and live in Dublin-s inner city. Both possessing superb musical talent, they''ve at last formed an emerging rock band in their mother''s memory. It was their mother, after all, who drove their musical ambition as she was a professional entertainer. Unfortunately, they lost her, at a crucial time, through breast cancer. They''re determined to make it musically in part due to her.

Their newly bereaved father doesn''t agree. An obstinate military man, Pipe Sergeant Jim Rockingham suddenly dictates the break-up of the band and the immediate enlistment of the boys in the army. While they think he is being cold and callous for its own sake, he is in fact under enormous pressure to repay years of insidious patronage provided by a dangerous local politician who now has ideas for Rocky. Ideas that involve using Rocky as a spy to infiltrate the local VIP Military - Diplomatic Bar & Restaurant. However
