[1] The film is a study of social environment in the Somers Town area of London, photographed mostly in black and white, except one scene which is in colour.

Somers Town follows several days in the lives of two teenage boys, Tomo and Marek, who develop a mutual trust and form an unlikely friendship.

Tomo and Marek then pass by the café where they learn that Maria has gone home to France because one of her family members fell ill.

Marek's father catches the pair, throws Tomo out of the flat, and tells his son to clean up the mess.

The last shot of the film shows Marek and Tomo each giving the French waitress a kiss on the cheek, as she smiles.

The film was funded by Eurostar, as the story is set in the neighbourhood of the train company's London terminal at St Pancras, which was just coming to the end of an £800 million re-build.

At Tribeca, stars Thomas Turgoose and Piotr Jagiello jointly shared the award for Best Actor in a Narrative Feature Film.
