When she learns of her estranged relatives from her dying mother, Sare drops everything in pursuit of a very North American vision of a warm Irish welcome, and is given an abrupt reality check.
Half-expecting a pot of gold and tales of yore, Sare is instead confronted by total ambivalence verging on hostility. Suze isn't in the mood. She's in a dead-end relationship with a manchild and is about to be turfed out of her flat. The last thing she needs are the attentions of a clingy romantic with stars in her eyes and a misplaced yearning for a piece of the old world.
Their father, Jimmy, was a good-for-nothing boozer – everyone says so. Then again, Suze has got little to gain by staying put. Given the frosty start, it's fitting that they hit the road in an ice cream van, but will they hit it off?
