β¦ Synopsis
No one escapes home undamaged.
Three kids from the wrong side of the Thames had made it good in the City. But when the impossible happens and the banks start to fall, secrets of their past rise to the surface. To stay on the up and up, they have to risk it all.
Four friends, united by a terrible secret. Christopher Rake meets a mysterious woman he wants to protect, no matter what the cost. Cezek Hitch is in a precarious position with a lot to lose. Seth needs his revenge and Helene just needs the truth.
Up and up is a gritty, crime thriller. Flicking back and forth between growing up in South-East London in 1996 and losing it all in 2008. London native, Erik Sturm, captures the flow and danger of the rough side of London.
