Irlanda
An unlikely kind of
friendship develops between Fergus, an Irish Republican Army volunteer, and
Jody, a kidnapped British soldier lured into an IRA trap by Jude, another IRA
member. When the hostage-taking ends up going horribly wrong, Fergus escapes
and heads to London, where he seeks out Jody's lover, a hairdresser named Dil.
Fergus adopts the name "Jimmy" and gets a job as a day laborer. He
also starts seeing Dil, who knows nothing about Fergus' IRA background. But
there are some things about Dil that Fergus doesn't know, either...
