The story behind Richard Burton. It’s 1942 and Richard Jenkins is at school in Port Talbot, caught between the pressures of an alcoholic father, a devastating war, and his own ambitions. A new opportunity beckons when Richard’s natural talent for drama catches the attention of his teacher, Philip Burton. The young man thrives under Philip’s strict tutelage and the guidance of a kindly landlady, Ma Smith. But as the acting world comes within Richard’s reach, the burden of his past risks holding him back forever.
