Ray (Bafta winner Steven Mackintosh, "Care", "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels") has everything under control. With a steady job as a bank security guard he’s finally escaped life on demoralizing suburban housing estates and is busy trying to find new digs for his ex-wife and beloved daughter. But his daughter has long since been lost to the drug scene; his own youthful right-wing activities come back to haunt him and sexual obsessions end up costing him his job. As Ray’s life crumbles he launches into an orgy of violence. "Falling Down", very British.
