Friends since they were small boys, Adam and Paul - and we never learn which is which - have withered into two hapless, desperate Dublin junkies, tied together by habit and necessity. A stylized, downbeat comedy, the film follows the pair through a single day, which, like every other, is entirely devoted to the business of scrounging and robbing money for drugs. The difference today is that Adam and Paul - already near rock bottom - have finally run out of luck, credit and friends. (adamandpaul.com)
