Synopsis
Micky is fired from his latest dead end job and there’s nothing out there but more of the same. His dad’s care home has just been bought out and Micky brings him back to his bedsit. He thinks they’ll be fine. He tries so hard to be. But he’s drowning. It’s not one big thing that sends him over, it’s the death by a thousand cuts.
He takes a course of action that is completely out of character but that seems to him to be the only way to make a REAL change. For all of them.
We’re left with a moral dilemma; in a world where the moral compass has shifted so far, so fast, whose version of right and wrong do we go with?
It's a film about people finding their way through. It’s about Micky Mason; a man out there right now doing his best. But it’s not all anguish and despair. Sometimes it’s warm and tender. And funny.
