Elmo McElroy est un chimiste fou. Il a mis au point le P.O.S. 51, la drogue « parfaite », celle qui vous donne l'impression que Dieu lui-même est venu vous faire signe. Bien décidé à commercialiser son petit chef-d'œuvre sans intermédiaire, Elmo se débarrasse de son encombrant patron, Le Lézard, pour rallier l'Angleterre - le 51e État des États-Unis d'après Elmo - et s'associe, par la force des choses, avec Felix Desouza, un petit malfrat de Liverpool, qui parle tout le temps et ne supporte pas ce qui est américain.

Le deuxième film de la série autobiographique de Terence Davies (avec "Trilogy" et "The Long Day Closes") est une vision impressionniste d'une famille ouvrière dans le Liverpool des années 1940 et 1950, basée sur la propre famille du réalisateur. A travers une série de tableaux exquis, Davies crée un album photo profondément émouvant d'une famille troublée aux prises avec la complexité de l'amour.
