Morbid Relations

Morbid Relations is the story of Rob Argyll, an unsuccessful stand up comedian. Following his mother’s death he returns for the first time in years to his family in their Glasgow home. Rob struggles to relate to his somewhat dysfunctional family, seeming to bounce from one mistake to another while simultaneously trying to make amends for his long absence. The narrative is a darkly comic take on modern Scottish life, family relationships, and finally trying to grow up.
