About
In a working-class quarter of Dublin, 'Bimbo' Reeves gets laid off from his job and, with his redundancy payout, buys a van and sells fish and chips with his buddy, Larry. Due to Ireland's surprising success at the 1990 FIFA World Cup, their business starts off well, but the relationship between the two friends soon becomes strained as Bimbo behaves more like a typical boss.
Dublin's working-class streets pulse with the chaotic energy of a city obsessed with its unexpected football glory. This fish-and-chips venture turns a friendship into a hilarious, messy battleground for survival.
