Directorial debut of Bill Forsyth following four unemployed Glaswegian teenagers in the 1970s. When Ronnie (Robert Buchanan) discovers that stainless steel sinks are worth a lot of money, he recruits friends Wal (Billy Greenlees), Alec (Allan Love) and Vic (John Hughes) to help him steal 90 of them from a nearby warehouse. The leader of the gang hatches a complex scheme that requires Vic and Wal to dress up as girls and use a sleeping potion, concocted by chemistry expert Bobby (Derek Millar), to borrow a bakery delivery truck for their cunning getaway. With Ronnie at the helm, can the friends pull off the heist and obtain their small fortune?
