Three young Dubliners go to London in search of fun, fortune and, in the case of 17-year-old Mary Kelly, an abortion. Homeless and jobless, their adventures quickly turn sour in this cautionary tale by Shane Connaughton, co-writer (with Jim Sheridan) of the Oscar-winning film "My Left Foot".
Connaughton's previous credits include the film "The Playboys", which starred Albert Finney and Aidan Quinn; he is currently working on a screenplay on the life of W.B. Yeats and Maud Gonne entitled "A Terrible Beauty", to be directed by Anjelica Huston. Also the author of two novels (A Border Station and The Run of the Country), Connaughton was the subject of last year's BBC documentary "A Border Childhood".
Sinead O'Connor sings the opening song "A Dream for Living", while the title song is performed by Ronnie Drew, lead singer of the Dubliners.
