Tom Vaughan-Lawlor ("Colm") is a forty something dock manager from the port of Dublin who has a scary encounter with a young man in the toilet of shopping centre and ends up being robbed. Next day the young man "Jay" (Tom Glynn-Carney") turns up in his office to extort even more from him. "Colm" has a drink problem, has recently lost his father, is facing redundancy and is trapped in a loveless (certainly sexless) marriage and has a diffident, recalcitrant son. All this contrives to drive him towards an emotionally addictive relationship with his erstwhile mugger. The whole thing is a bit rough around the edges, but the two leads perform strongly and we get a slight inkling as to what drove both men to where they are now. Don't expect a conclusion; there isn't one - and it does wallow a little in confused self-pity as only us Celts can - but it is worth a watch.
