Unemployment hits Sheffield and in order to make some money,
six men decide to strip.
The men of the town are out of work and desperate for money.
Although they each have motivations outside of earning some extra cash. Gaz (Robert Carlyle) wants to earn enough to be able to see his son. Their relationship is a bit
rocky but it seems like his son comes to understand that his dad is doing the
best with what he has. Dave (Mark Addy) is feeling insecure in his relationship and
although he is reluctant to take part in the dancing, his wife helps him see
that it’s perhaps a good thing for him to do. Gerald (Tom Wilkinson) can’t provide for his wife
in the way he used to and is humiliated at being stuck on the dole. He can
dance though and so he enjoys his time teaching the guys to dance and taking
part himself. The men bond over the time spent training and it gives them the
boost they need during this hard time.
I quite like this film. It seems like the kind of thing that
could potentially go on.
