Dublin's forgotten underbelly fights to exist while the city crumbles around them.
A group of unemployed and marginalised souls eke out a meagre living by drawing welfare and occupying a derelict squat in an apocalyptic inner city Dublin. Among the undesirables are a gay man estranged from his wife, a pimp and his prostitute, a destitute businessman, and a paranoiac. The makeshift family soon find themselves subject of intimidation from the State, along with other external forces.
