Across the Water

RETURN OF A NATIVE SON

Following the events of Under the Bridge, Vinny and Anne travel to Ireland in search of Vinny's father, Paddy, who mysteriously disappeared not long after returning to his homeland in 1974.



We piece Paddy's story together as he returns to Wicklow to lie low after a killing in Liverpool. DI Barlow of Special Branch wants to use him to disrupt an IRA gun route. Facing danger on every side he struggles to fit in. A devastating experience in Dublin forces him to re-evaluate his life and seek a better future.



A story of emigration and return in three narratives that span recent history in Ireland and the UK.
