Tomorrow, Friday, another European production will also be released, apart from the German one The Wave, what is the english Somers Town.
Somers Town tells us the story of Tommo who, just turning 16, ceases to be under the tutelage of social services and escapes to London, where a lonely life full of difficulties awaits him.
Marek, a Polish immigrant, lives with his father, who spends his nights drinking with friends. Marek is an enthusiastic, calm and sensitive photographer who is not comfortable in his father's world.
Tommo and Marek try to adapt to their new surroundings, and after a chance meeting in Somers Town, London, they form an unexpected alliance. Unbeknownst to his father, Marek welcomes Tommo into his home. The two boys begin to earn money from the projects of an eccentric and enterprising neighbor. Meanwhile, Marek's muse, Maria, a French waitress, becomes the obsession of both young men. But when she unexpectedly returns to Paris, the boys are devastated. The situation worsens when Marek's father discovers Tommo and kicks him out of the house.
Although they have to travel to Paris, the boys are willing to go to the limit in order to find Maria. Only in this way, through friendship, will they achieve redemption.
