Joey Frisk is a stand-up comedian whose life has just stopped being funny. In the most important week of his career, with an American talent scout flying in to Edinburgh to check out his act, his life begins to unravel.
Looking for help, he turns to Frank Archer, a former friend who has recently walked back into his life. Together at military school 25 years earlier, Frank is keen that he and Joey get reacquainted and offers to take him in. But, as Joey finds out, friendship is the last thing on Frank’s mind.
This is a powerfully redemptive and darkly comedic revenge thriller set against the vicious world of stand-up comedy.
Q&A with the director following the screening on Wed 26 May.
