Janet and Samuel find a haul of illegal drugs on a shipwrecked boat. The pair can't believe their luck and agree to sell it and split the cash. But on their tail is a sharp suited gangster known as 'The Tailor'.
"At its heart, Boat Story is an action-thriller about two ordinary people whom the world has turned its back on, and whether they're willing - or desperate enough - to do something crazy to get what they want in life. Pushed to the very edge, can they trust each other and get away with their lives and the money?
"Boat Story embodies twists and turns with character-driven, surprising storytelling. Off-beat humour contrasts with high-octane action sequences against the spectacular backdrop of the beautiful, windswept Yorkshire coastline."
