While 'The Very Man' is still in development all we can give you is a glimpse of an outline.

The film starts in London at Christmas-time when our hero Banquo takes advantage of a charity lift home to Ireland on a mission we are never quite sure of.

Banquo meets the hapless Frankie who is returning to Ireland for a funeral. Banquo is the bastard-son of Molly Bloom and The Brother. The whole point of the story is that you never know where the REAL story is, and that some days it's a real achievement to sit down to a quiet pint without some go-boy trying to beat the head off you.

All very oblique, but such is the lens through which we view Banco Banaghan and his many and various comings and goings. He's a bit of a chancer, a gentleman gouger, a scholar of Dublin arcana; he's good for a fiver 'til doomsday, a lift home when you've had a few; he has the name of a horse for Saturday; he's... The Very Man.

Hilarious and sinister consequences ensue with enough twists to keep Einstein guessing.
