Hopelessly lost at night with a purse full of money, elderly Kay happens into an edge of town service station. Leo and Clyde plan and argue abut robing a local business after Clyde closes shop. John sits and watches. Kay seems like an easy mark before the main job.

An itinerant cook survives a shipwreck, paddles himself to an island in a stock pot, and finds himself on a surreal journey through his past to discover the ineffable connection he has with a clown living a desultory existence in a dilapidated lighthouse.

This feature film uses Michael Crummey's seminal piece of Newfoundland literature to examine cultural change and modern relationships.
