Love Me Still is a dark emotional thriller set in North London. The story centres on two feuding brothers both from criminal pasts.
The younger brother, MICKEY, after a long stint in prison for armed robbery is desperate to move on and start a new life with his wife, GEMMA, and daughter, LUCY. His older brother, BOBBY, is jealous of Mickey’s family life, and just days before Mickey’s release from prison Bobby kidnaps Gemma and Lucy and holds them hostage in a remote house in Ireland.
Mickey arrives home to find his family gone and neither his sister, MAGGIE, nor his Grandfather, LENNY, knows of their whereabouts. With the help of some friends from the old days, Mickey sets out to get his family back.
Lenny sadly passes away and Bobby is forced to come home for the funeral. The two brothers respectably keep their distance during the funeral, but as soon as it is over they confront one another - only for Bobby to give Mickey the slip again. Mickey tracks him down and they face each other one last time with devastating consequences.
