Synopsis:

From Bhob Stewart's synopsis at AllMovie.com: "...Circus performer Sweety Barrett (Brendan Gleeson) loses his job swallowing objects and is hired by bootlegger Flick Hennessy (Tony Rohr) to do odd jobs in the port town of Dockery where the slow-witted Sweety meets Anne King (Lynda Steadman) and her six-year-old son Conor (Dylan Murphy). Anne's husband Leo (Andy Serkis) has been framed... [and when] ... released from jail, Leo plots revenge, and violence erupts." Cillian Murphy appears in a small role as a bartender.

Cast also includes Liam Cunningham.
