What Becomes of the Broken Hearted?

Directed by Ian Mune
Once they were warriors. Men of Honour. Now five years on one man's battle has only just begun.

Five years have passed and Jake has turned his back on his family. He's still up to his usual tricks in McClutchy's Bar, unaware, as he downs his latest opponent, that his eldest son, Nig, has died in a gang fight. The uncomfortable family reunion at Nig's funeral sparks a confrontation with second son, Sonny, and sets Jake and Sonny on a downward spiral.
