White Irish Drinkers
A coming of age tale set in 1975 working-class Brooklyn, in which two adolescent siblings living with their abusive papa as well as their well-meaning but inadequate mother are caught up in a life of petty crime. Older sibling Danny devises a bold plan to take sufficient cash for both to escape, timed around the chaos of an upcoming Rolling Stones concert. The sensitive younger sibling, Brian, ultimately has an option: remain devoted to the bro with whom he shares an effective love-hate bond, or use his concealed ability as a musician as his very own ticket out of their dead-end presence.
