Mae Tyrone yn byw gyda'i fam a'i chariad Pommy, deliwr cyffuriau bywyd isel sy'n casáu mewnfudwyr a phobl hoyw. Mae ffrind gorau Tyrone, Clinton, ffoadur, yn byw gyda'i frawd hŷn Shaker, sydd hefyd â syniadau cadarn tebyg am hil a rhyw. Er gwaethaf y rhwystrau hyn, mae'r bechgyn yn rhannu cwlwm, y ddau yn fyddar, y ddau wedi'u hesgeuluso gan deulu, a'r ddau yn breuddwydio am ddianc o'r trais creulon sy'n eu hamgylchynu.
