SYNOPSIS
Amidst power cuts, strikes and boot-boy aggro on the football terraces, JOE MCCAIN (MARTIN COMPSTON), is bored of a life that's going nowhere. Enter hair-dresser JANE (NICHOLA BURLEY). Blonde, brassy, and moving to the beat of a whole new world of sound, movement and all-nighter dancing at The Wigan Casino - the home of Northern Soul.

MANDY (FELICITY JONES), a cute and spunky artist, is eager to help Joe become the cool "soul boy" he wants to be. As Mandy falls for Joe a love triangle develops leaving Joe to decide who and what he really wants in his life.

'Soulboy' stars BAFTA winner Martin Compston, who rose to fame after appearing in Ken Loach's 2002 film 'Sweet Sixteen'.
