A young working class boy grows up in the economic hardship of the 1930s Liverpool where he lives by strict Catholic doctrine and witnesses the rise of fascism. Following Priest, Jimmy McGovern continues his obsession with the sins of the Catholic church. This is a bit like Angela's Ashes, bar the humour, but it's very hard to relate to any of it.
