Inhaltsangabe

Vera, feisty but fading, and Ronnie, washed up and permanently half-drunk, preside over a grubby pub/hotel in present-day Belfast. We watch them—and their variously inadequate "regulars"—through one long day in which Ronnie fails to secure the pub’s financial future and Vera looks set to run off with the feckless Iggy.
