Synopsis: | A property developer on the make, a pair of rural hucksters, a degradation-driven TD and a supporting cast of thieves, punks, hookers and cannibals are thrown together on a Dublin street on the day of the Pope's visit in 1979. Twenty years on, that street and those characters are barely recognisable, all slicked up and ready for the millennium. | |||||

Synopsis: | Joey, the much loved daughter, arrives home to Dublin airport where she is met by parents Julie and Frank, a dream couple of the '60s who have since fallen on leaner times, and her brother Shane, the clever child turned no-hoper. At the airport, they meet Chris Farrell, a blast from the past, a lonely alcoholic who has been stripped of his pilot wings and is looking for an antidote to numbness. Back at the Fox homestead dissatisfaction is added to old wounds and large quantities of duty free, as Joey's long-awaited return begins to shatter what's left of the family idyll. | |||||
