synopsis
Top-billed John Altman, Martin Barrass, Al Ashton and Nick Dunning play four of several British sailors. Dropping anchor in a rundown port, the poor tars are given 24 hours' leave. Except for a seedy disco, night life in town is nil, so the sailors are compelled to amuse themselves with drinking, brawling and whoring. They return to their ship with little to show for their time off but heartache.
