Long Time No See is the story of a white working class woman named Freda who marries Billy, a hopeful young Jamaican whom she meets in the Ska and Reggae filled dance halls
of 1960s Manchester. Freda and Billy have a son, Devon, who has learning difficulties. On the day of Billy's funeral, Freda's estranged brother Alex, forces his way back into their
