The camera closes in on one of the many terraced houses to reveal a drug dealer Lee playing computer games with his friends and attempting to pass a cannabis joint to his pregnant girlfriend. Lee has just left prison for the second time and is now living in a council house courtesy of Leeds City Council. He lives there with his girlfriend Carol, who at the start of the film is pregnant with their unborn daughter Lily.
When Carol miscarries her baby, she blames Lee and their lifestyle for the loss and leaves him. Lee seems unaffected and continues his lifestyle of dealing drugs, intimidating others and getting into fights. Lee is pushed the drugs by his mother, who seemingly cares little for him. She introduces him to a new drug called "wax" which begins to give him hallucinations of his dead child.
He tries to ignore the hallucinations as a side effect of the drug, but they increasingly occupy his thoughts. Carol is now going out with a local hard man called Tommy, who traps her in an abusive relationship.
Carol calls out to Lee for help and so Tommy challenges Lee but to no avail. Lee shuns Carol and does not fight Tommy, despite still having feelings for her. Lee is becoming increasingly confused about what is important to him and the repeated hallucinations of his baby become more vivid.

Lee is arrested after a nightclub fight with a rival drug dealer, but is released without charge. When he goes to his mother's house he discovers that his mother has been supplying his rival and is also having a relationship with him.
This pushes Lee over the edge and he turns to his hallucinations as the only reliable constant left in his life. Through visions of his baby he realises that his love for Carol is never going to leave him and he sets about getting her back.
