What is Romeo and Julie about?
Romeo is a single dad hanging on tight. Julie is fighting to follow her dream of studying at Cambridge.
Two Welsh teens raised a few streets apart – but from entirely different worlds – crash into first love and are knocked off their feet. But at the crossroads to the rest of their lives, Julie’s family fears the worst in a world of unequal opportunity.
