Long-time Communist Sam has one goal - to become the UK’s first Communist Party MP.

Rhona, meanwhile, is desperate to leave the party behind… but instead finds herself unexpectedly elected to its executive committee.

As Sam battles to balance his ideals with the compromises needed to win, the question looms: success at what cost?

The series, set in Liverpool is the grounded story of a relationship, in all its complications - But it also documents the toils, internal strifes, and mechanisms of a fringe UK political party struggling to stay alive and relevant in 2025.
