The story

John is a cash-strapped taxi driver in Dublin, who lives with his mother, Jean, whose alcoholism has spiraled out of control. He finds her comatose in her own vomit and drives her to the hospital, where she recuperates until her next bout of drunkenness. John juggles trying to find work, spending time with his best friend Shane, arguing with his mother about her alcohol consumption, taxiing sex workers, and palling with his younger brother Kit, who has Down syndrome and lives in a home with other disabled children.
