Set in London's East End in the 1960s and 1980s. Spider sees his father brutally murder his mother and replace her with a prostitute. Convinced they plan to murder him next, Spider hatches an insane plan which he carries through to tragic effect. Years later, Spider, now an adult, is released in a halfway house, where he receives little care from the landlady. Unsupervised, he stops taking his medication and starts revisiting his childhood haunts. <98mn 11s>
