Synopsis

Stealing a dodgy bread van Noel, Paudie and Scwally set out on an adventure across the wild Irish landscape to replace their dying father’s watch. Trouble comes their way immediately as the van continually breaks down and the estranged brothers start bickering at each other. After being sidetracked and bumping into odd characters along their journey the boys finally arrive at their destination, the seaside town of Ballybunion, where an identical watch to their father’s broken one sits in an arcade machine. Emotions come to a head when they cant extract the watch. Heading home, exhausted and homesick, the boys come to the realization that what they have in life is each other. And that from now on, they’ll have to look out for each other.
