Synopsis: Antonia, a good-for-nothing teen, lives in Brockworth, Gloucestershire – a town famed for ‘The Cheese Roll’: an extremely dangerous race held annually for centuries on the treacherous Cooper’s Hill, which overlooks the town. Her brother is the current reigning champion, but when he is called up for service overseas, Antonia views his absence as the perfect opportunity to get involved with the tradition that the men in her family have dominated for generations. The only problem standing in Antonia’s way is her mother, Fiona, who will stop at nothing to prevent Antonia from participating.
