Tagline: How Far Would You Go To Save The Family Business?
Plot: From the makers of "Calendar Girls" comes an uplifting British comedy about two outcast dreamers who finally figure out how to stand up for themselves . . . in thigh-high leather stilettos. Inspired by a surprising true story, KINKY BOOTS stars Joel Edgerton ("Star Wars: Episode III") as Charlie Price, the young Englishman who inherits his father’s failing shoe factory and, in a rousing comedic turn, Chiwetel Ejiofor ("Dirty Pretty Things") as "Lola," the feisty female impersonator who turns Charlie's world, and the entire luckless factory, inside out and on its way to the catwalks of Milan. With a mix of brassy humor and heartwarming poignancy, KINKY BOOTS explores what happens when people who have spent their entire lives trying to fit in suddenly decide to truly stand out.Charlie Price thinks he has finally escaped the dead-end industrial town of Northampton with his ambitious fiancée Nicola (Jemima Rooper), when his father suddenly passes away, leaving Charlie unexpectedly in charge of the sinking family business in sturdy shoes. Trapped between a world of cheap knock-offs and to-die-for Jimmy Choos, Price & Sons seemingly doesn't need a manager so much as it needs a savior. With mounting dread, Charlie soon realizes that to even stay afloat he's going to have to lay off
