Showtime describes Guerrilla as, “a love story set against the backdrop of one of the most politically explosive times in U.K. history.

About Guerrilla TV Series, Season One | Showtime
The cell sets its sights on the Black Power Desk, “a true-life, secretive counter-intelligence unit within the Special Branch.” The Black Power Desk “is dedicated to crushing all forms of black activism.”
Showtime says, “While the series is set against a background of social and political activism, at its heart Guerrilla is about a relationship under pressure, and the reality that for any couple there comes a point when the choices they make have real and lasting consequences.”
