The film won several awards including the Silver Bear for Best Actor (Iain Glen) at the 40th Berlin International Film Festival, Best Film ( Michael Powell British Film of the Year Award), Scottish BAFTA (for Best Film) and Best Director (OCIC). Denise McDonald: Young Larry Winters sister.Meeting with his older brother (now played by Alexander Morton) and his mother in the family home is one of the most upsetting recurring themes of the film. Years later, after several years in prison, Larry has a home visit. Don loads it and almost shoots Larry in the head. They run off and hide in the woods where they begin to play with the weapon. Later, the two boys break into a mansion house and his brother Don finds a gun and some bullets. This represents the beginning of his violence. Larry smashes it over the head of his adversary. His brother Don steps in to save him and gives Larry a glass bottle to fight with.

The two boys are being attacked by a Glasgow gang and Larry is cornered. His memories of childhood are frequent but one stands out above the others. A writer of poetry, Winters own work gave the film its name. It becomes clear that he is gifted but unstable. His own internal battle with right and wrong is what drives the film. Before running off, the viewer witnesses his indecision to take the gun his older brother gave him. Content with messing about in the military, Winters soon becomes disenchanted with the army, takes part in a brutal beating of another soldier and goes AWOL. His life in the Parachute regiment is captured with gritty realism. The adventures of the two boys feature heavily in the film. In his own writing he describes the times as his most peaceful. The childhood holidays in Carbisdale are fundamental to the biography of Winters. His older brother Don (played by Jamie Morton) almost shoots Larry in the head by accident while playing with a World War II rifle stolen previously by Don. Together the two commit crimes including robbery, breaking and entering, shooting and fighting. The encouragement from his older brother is clearly the cause of his dysfunction.

His life as a young man is beset with problems. His life as a child, in which he is encouraged by his brother to do wrong, is captured in beautiful nostalgia. Since the film deals primarily with the convict Winters, the viewer experiences his memories to the fullest. The memories are triggered by drugs and isolation.

The film is composed of flashbacks into his younger life as a soldier in the parachute regiment and his childhood in Glasgow and Carbisdale.
