In the summer of 1994, the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act is effectively banning outdoor rave parties throughout the United Kingdom. Johnno and Spanner are teenage best friends in Livingston, Scotland, and the rave they are going to together is the first for them and perhaps the last.

The two want one night of adventure and escape before they part ways indefinitely, and they set off together hoping to sneak into the illegal party before the move separates them for good.
