Pegeen Flaherty's life is turned upside down when a young man walks into her pub claiming he has killed his own father. Instead of condemnation, he becomes a local hero and begins to win hearts — until unexpectedly another man appears.

A live-recorded production from the stage of the National Theatre, directed by Caitríona McLaughlin. A dark and funny story packed with secrets, screened with Polish subtitles.
