Spine is a funny and touching love song to libraries, an increasingly endangered species under Britain’s austerity government. It is also a galvanizing manifesto on reading and learning by Amy, a frustrated teenager from South London. Thanks to a strong-willed old woman and a house full of stolen books, Amy begins to learn how to chart her own course.
