Ein erfahrener Bergsteiger soll gemeinsam mit weiteren arbeitslosen Männern in kürzester Zeit für Schwarzgeld in einer Kleinstadt in Yorkshire zahlreiche Hochspannungsmasten anstreichen. Der Zusammenhalt der Gruppe gerät aus dem Gleichgewicht, als eine junge Tramperin und Freeclimberin hinzustößt und sich eine Liebesgeschichte zwischen ihr und dem Leiter der Gruppe entwickelt.
A manager hires Ray, off the books, to paint all the power towers in a 15-mile stretch of high-tension wires outside Sheffield. Ray's crew of men are friends, especially Ray with Steve, a young Romeo. Into the mix comes Gerry, an Australian with a spirit of adventure and mountain climbing skills. She wants a job, and against the others' advice, who don't want a woman on the job, Ray hires her. Then she and Ray fall in love. He asks her to marry him, gives her a ring. Steve's jealous; Ray's ex-wife complains that he spends on Gerry, not his own kids, and she predicts that Gerry won't stay around. Plus, there's pressure to finish the job fast. Economics, romance, and wanderlust spark the end.
