On the Run

Life in postwar Britain is tough, especially in London's East End, ravaged by bombing and rampant crime. Accused of murdering the son of a notorious gangland boss, Joe Foster is in big trouble. Evidence points to him as the killer, and he is forced to run from the police and the criminal underworld combined. To avoid capture, Joe flees the country and discovers an opportunity for a future he could only dream of in Britain. But his family and the love of his life, Maggie, are in London, and he is desperate to claim his innocence.
