Description A petty criminal returns home after running off ten years earlier. Home is a failed orchard with just one bad apple remaining on the tree - but does that represent the failed prodigal son Mal, the brain damaged youngest brother Broody or the middle son who's struggling to care for the youngster? Or the masochistic father who terrorizes the children still? Or Mal's old girlfriend?
