But Charlie quickly realizes it is not business as usual, and the company is on the verge of bankruptcy. As a skeptical workforce debates the skills of their novice manager, Charlies looks to London for solutions, where he meets the sassy drag performer, Lola (Ejiofor). Lola's Soho world of outrageous fashion and style opens Charlie's eyes to an intriguing niche market. He enlists Lola's help to diversify Price & Sons and make erotic shoes and boots for a male market. With only weeks to go before the crucial Milan Shoe Fair, Charlie and Lola have to work together to bring the factory back to life.
