Description A lousy father, a worse husband, a coward and drunk, Irishman Dan Moffat can at least spin out a good yarn. Through an alcohol-fuelled monologue that covers his early days in Belfast, a shotgun wedding and subsequent move to rural New Zealand, he inadvertently tells us that you reap what you sow. While all his self-pity and self-aggrandising will never endear him to us, we might come a little closer to understanding him.
