Jesse is 25, from Hull. A carer on minimum wage, keeping the elderly alive while trying to live her own messy, chaotic life. Told over one night, we follow her from care shift to the dance floor, from the late-night kebab to an early morning call-out as she battles the system that undervalues her and the city that shapes her, all while her ADHD-fuelled thoughts and anxious mind crave order in the chaos.

Both political and personal, the show shines a light on working-class survival in Britain today – where carers are underpaid, the care system is crumbling, and young women are left to piece themselves together in a society that keeps breaking them.
