Charlie Price (Joel Edgerton) po nenadni smrti očeta prevzame tradicionalno družinsko čevljarsko podjetje v Northamptonu, Price in sinovi. Toda Charlie kmalu ugotovi, da podjetju ne gre ravno dobro in da mu brez novih naročil grozi stečaj. Ko se skeptični delavci pogovarjajo o novem direktorju, Charlie išče rešitev v Londonu in po naključju spozna živahno kabaretno zvezdo Lolo (Chiwetel Ejiofor). Ta mu predstavi svet Soha, svet kričeče mode in elegantnih erotičnih čevljev. Charlie v tem vidi zanimivo tržno nišo, ki je daleč od klasične moške obutve. Zaskrbljeno, vendar s podporo bojevite delavke Lauren (Sarah Jane Potts), Charlie zaposli Lolo, da bi mu pomagala pri izdelavi erotičnih ženskih čevljev za moške. Toda v podeželski tovarni Lolin prihod sprejmejo sovražno in s posmehom, prednjači pa prav Charlievo dekle Nicola (Jemima Rooper). Nesrečni in prijazni Charlie še naprej dela z Lolo, ki skrije svoje lastne negotovosti in prevzame nadzor nad dizajnom. S svojo drznostjo pomaga osvojiti razdeljene delavce in začeti izdelovati čevlje. Do odločilnega milanskega čevljarskega sejma je le še nekaj tednov, zato so v tovarni vsi polno zaposleni z menjavanjem bronastega semiša in svetlečega usnja z leopardjo kožo in pvc-jem. Toda kolekcijo in Milano zdaj ogrožata Charlievi želji po popolnosti in uspehu. Nazadnje Charliju popustijo živci in znese se nad Lolo. Tako na predvečer sejma izgubi največjo podpornico in zaveznico.

Originalni opis filma:

Charles Price may have grown up with his father in the family shoe business, but he never thought that he would take his father's place. Yet, the untimely death of his father places him in that position, only to learn that Price & Sons Shoes is failing. While in despair at his failed attempts to save the business, Charles has a chance encounter with the flamboyant drag queen cabaret singer, Lola. Her complaints about the inadequate footwear for her work combined with one of Charles' ex-employees, Lauren, leads to a suggestion to change the product to create a desperate chance to save the business: make men's fetish footwear. Lola is convinced to be their footwear designer and the transition begins. Now this disparate lot must struggle at this unorthodox idea while dealing with both the prejudice of the staff, Lola's discomfort in the small town and the selfish manipulation of Charles' greedy fiancée who cannot see the greater good in Charles' dream.
