In this disturbing British thriller, the fate of a gang of urban kids who skip school to play in the woods with a souped-up stolen moped is changed forever when they crash into Peter. A dishevelled drifter, Peter is delighted to have a group of youngsters to hang out with. First he gains their trust by joining in their games but then his behaviour begins to change. Peter uses what he has learned about the kids against them, bullying the alpha boys, belittling the weaker ones and saving his worst for the only girl of the group. The kids realise too late that they are being held hostage and when Peter acknowledges things have gone too far, the kids are forced to embrace the dark side of human nature if they are going to survive the ordeal.
