## Synopsis (in-house rewrite)

A film that asks, "What if a Northampton shoe factory made fetish boots?"

When Charlie inherits his family's failing business, an unexpected partnership with drag performer Lola leads to a niche product that might save the day.

It's formulaic, but the tunes are alright.

**Mood tags**: tender, uplifting
