This visceral and gripping crime thriller stars Golden Globe® nominee Aidan Gillen (Game of Thrones, Kin, Love/Hate). Luke McQuillan (Darklands, Game of Thrones), Jade Jordan (Twig), Louise Bourke (Let The Wrong One In), Helen Behan (This is England) and newcomer Daniel Fee and delivers an unflinching look at the intense, gritty underworld of organised crime and the fragile loyalties that bind it together.
Danny (Luke McQuillan), a homeless former soldier haunted by PTSD forms an unlikely bond with Will (Daniel Fee), a young teenager on the run from a dangerous drug gang led by the charismatically menacing Power (Aidan Gillen). While Danny and Will navigate the dangers of life on the streets their encounter forces them to confront their pasts while navigating their harsh realities.
​
A Western set in a contemporary urban setting with excellent performances from the three leads. Luke McQuillan and Daniel Fee bring the heart and pathos to the film while Aidan Gillen joyfully chews scenery as the charismatic villain.
