A gangster named Perrier looks to exact his revenge on a trio of fugitives responsible for the accidental death of one of his cronies.

Overview

Michael (Cillian Murphy) owes money to Dublin’s meanest gangster, Darren Perrier (Brendan Gleeson). When the debt is called in Brenda (Jodie Whittaker), Michael’s recently dumped and suicidal best friend, accidentally shoots dead one of his goons. To make matters worse Michael’s estranged father, Jim (Jim Broadbent), arrives just in time to witness the scene. With a bounty on their heads Michael, Jim and Brenda flee to the mountains.

On the run with his eccentric father, who’s convinced he’ll die the next time he sleeps, and an increasingly morose Brenda, Michael is about to lose his mind. But as the net tightens and the helter skelter chase reaches its climax he is forced to forgive his father and confront his true feelings for Brenda. With every hard man in Dublin on their trail it looks like Michael won’t make it through the next 24 hours; however, the Grim Reaper and a gang of savage dogs have a funny way of intervening.
