Gay American writer Robert Drake is on the road to recovery but this is a journey with a difference. Over ten years have passed since a violent and bloody attack by two young men in Sligo, Ireland one dark night left him brain damaged and unable to walk. It also stopped a writing career just as it was about to take off.
From his home in Philadelphia we follow Robert as he takes a trip back to Ireland to confront the memories of what happened and lay the past to rest. During his journey we see him catching up with old Irish friends and acquaintances and we get a tantalizing glimpse of how his life might have been. Full of laughter, tears and literary types, this documentary captures Robert s spirit and intention that of moving on positively and taking the world with him.
