PJ ( Rangimoana Taylor ) is a truckdriver with a workingman's pride in his job. His partner Ronnie ( Carmel McGlone ), her
two kids bordering on adulthood, singing at the local pub and fishing with his best mate Jono (KC Kelly), form the backbone
of his modest existence. But when he fails a mandatory eye test and loses his driving licence, PJ's life unravels.
In the face of his imminent future as a blind man, the ever pragmatic Ronnie upscales her wedding dress business with the
help of her ambitious older sister Bernadette ( Geraldine Brophy ) to become the breadwinner of the family. But PJ, refusing
to accept the loss of his sight and unable to cope with the rapidly altering family dynamics, takes everyone on a tumultuous
emotional journey to the very edge until, with Ronnie's help, he is willing to accept a new place for himself in the world.
