The film explores the events surrounding a motorcycle courier (Padraig O'Loinsigh) and his girl friend (Cait O'Riordan, then Mrs Costello) who find themselves involved in the drug world of Dublin. Gabriel Byrne plays the drug lord.
Although not a memorable film, it has some fine shots of pre-boom Dublin and an interesting soundtrack that includes eight Elvis Costello compositions. These are early examples of his instrumental work.
