Cracked Tiles

Lorenzo Novani who brought us the compelling and moving "Loving The Enemy" is back in Nairn with a unique perspective on a true story resulting in a genuinely special experience.

A year ago he inherited his father's crumbling empire, a run-down chip shop in the east end of Glasgow. The sale for the shop now looms, but Riccardo isn't ready to leave: he has just discovered a compelling oddity in the family business records.

Perplexed and burning with curiosity, he now finds himself with no choice but to revisit family history, asking questions of his father he never would have dared to ask before. Do the shop's grease-stained walls hold the answers?
