White Irish Drinkers

A coming of age story set in 1975 Brooklyn. Two teenage brothers living with their abusive father and well-meaning mother are caught up in a life of petty crime. Older brother Danny concocts a daring scheme to steal enough money for them both to escape. Sensitive younger brother, Brian, has a choice: remain loyal to the brother he shares a violent love-hate relationship with, or try to get out on his own. As the day of the crime approaches, tensions boil over and it becomes clear not both of the brothers will escape.
