Experienced screen actor and up-and-coming filmmaker Dexter Fletcher (Lock Stock, Topsy-Turvy; Wild Bill) shows something of a midas touch behind the camera with this hugely enjoyable, feel-good romp based upon the stage musical by Stephen Greenhorn that features the music of The Proclaimers. Returning from duty in Afghanistan to Leith, lifelong friends Davy and Ally must re-learn how to live life in Edinburgh. Soon they are kindling romances new and old and everything is going swimmingly until a revelation from their past threatens to tear their lives apart. They must then pull together to ensure the sun keeps on shining.
