An anxious young man, Ruari, arrives to meet his dad, Liam, in their local pub. They reminisce about the past, as Ruari struggles to share some big news. Conversation turns to Liam’s alcoholism, which resulted in the breakdown of Liam’s marriage to Ruari’s Mum, Bridget. As tensions rise over the strained father-son relationship, Ruari finally tells his dad the reason for their impromptu meeting – he has Motor Neurone Disease. He is going to die. The shock forces them to finally connect and talk properly, as they realise what is ahead of them. Desperate, Ruari asks his dad to help him break the news to his mum. Liam, reluctant at first, downs another pint, and it hits Ruari that his dad is drinking non-alcoholic beer. As Bridget, Ruari’s mum, walks through the door, Liam is caught in the headlights by the family reunion. In tragedy and celebration, and with their differences finally set aside, we know that these two men will navigate their days ahead, together. Official Selection Galway Film Fleadh 2026
