Plot Synopsis
Shaun has been given the best start in life but growing up he finds he doesn’t fit into this world, especially with the self-righteous and entitled kids at Curtis Mills College. Deliberately deceiving his family, he enrols at his cousin’s college where he discovers the world of girls, parties and excitement that he’s been craving. Trying to impress the hottest girl in school, Shaun manages to destroy his father’s prized Lotus and needs to find £20,000 to repair the damage – all before his parents return from holiday. Persuaded by his wayward cousin and new friends, Shaun devises a plan to make some quick money but with potentially damaging consequences. Quickly becoming uncomfortable with the lies he is telling not only to his family and friends but to the wider world, Shaun wants to come clean. Things get more complicated when he meets Natalie who believes his lies and is touched by his generous spirit. Shaun soon becomes torn between his growing feelings for Natalie and fear of his father’s wrath and must decide which path he wants to take.
It’s A Lot is released across the UK on 25 October 2013.
