SYNOPSIS
Meet
Michael McCrea. Michael owes money to Darren Perrier, the biggest,
nastiest gangster in the whole of Dublin and today's the day
that Perrier will
collect. Michael is flat broke and with only 24 hours to pay
up, he's in deepest feckin' peril!
The Girl:
Michael's best friend Brenda is on her own emotional
rollercoaster, having just been dumped. Oh, and to make matters
worse, she's just
shot one of Perrier's thugs. Brenda and Michael have always
had chemistry, but now it ignites. Perrier puts a price on
Michael's head, a 'bounty'
so now Michael and Brenda must escape every hood in town.
The
Problem:
Michael's dad Jim turns up after not seeing his son for years. Jim's had
a vision that Death himself is waiting on his doorstep, ready to strike
as soon as he falls asleep. Jim joins our fleeing couple, but it's a nightmare
being on the run with insomnia.
The Plan:
Together, this unlikely trio must beat the clock, stay awake, fall in love
and above all, pay Perrier's Bounty!
