Mint: Story, Cast and Series Facts

Story and premise

Mint, a darkly comic and unconventional drama about what it means to be part of a crime family.

This series chooses not to focus on the usual suspects – the godfather or the heavy – preferring instead to follow the kids, the mum and the grandma in the family. It's a story about the love, darkness, humour, heartbreak and plain weirdness of living alongside that world, and what happens when you're forced to take control of it.
