Jake is just about getting by, running the titular nightspot and looking to take it upmarket – as we meet him, he’s sweating on the verdict of a prominent food critic. But Vince has a target on his back: he owes money to bad people and Jake is his last resort.

But beneath this beauty lies a darker reality that I feel compelled to expose through my lens.I was born into a middle-class family, and grew up quite isolated from the outside world.
