Synopsis:
We're in the middle of a heatwave in fenland England. Goob Taylor's spent each of his 16 summers helping mum run the transport cafe and harvest the surrounding beet fields. When mum shacks up with swarthy stock car supremo and lady's man Gene Womack, Goob becomes an unwelcome side thought. However Goob's world turns when exotic beet picker Eva arrives. Fuelled by her flirtatious comments, Goob dreams of better things. But as the temperatures soar and the beet crop swells, the tension escalates when Womack wants a piece of Eva too.
