‘I lost my mum before I lost my virginity. I’d call that unfair!’

(God Save My) Northern Soul is a dark comedy about love, loss and Northern soul music. After her Mum’s sudden death, Nicole is shoved headfirst into the world of adulthood whilst still clinging on to the end of her teenage years and desperately trying to lose her virginity. Nicole is 19. A mixed-race only child from Wigan. She’s spent the last few years floating through college, postponed university and now works the 12 to 5 fitting room shift at River Island.

Nicole suddenly finds out that she’s inherited a house, a BMW and a sandwich shop. The story follows Nicole as she tries to come to terms with her new ‘adult’ life, with the help of her strait-laced catholic Gran, chain-smoking best mate Sally and flamboyant Father Smithe. All with an underscore of Northern Soul Music.
