The Full Ridiculous
Michael O'Dell is hit by a car. When he doesn't die, he is surprised and pleased. But he can't seem to move from the crash position. He can't concentrate, or control his anger and grief, or work out what to do about anything.
His wife Wendy is heroically supportive but his teenage children don't help his post-accident angst: daughter Rosie punches out a vindictive schoolmate and all hell breaks loose, while son Declan is found with a stash of illicit drugs.
A strange policeman starts harassing the family and ordinary mishaps take on a sinister desperation.
The Full Ridiculous captures the chaos of life with wit and raw emotion, offering a poignant exploration of the struggles between personal turmoil and familial bonds.
