No man is an island... but in Dublin an inner-city lane can be just that. Welcome to Clementine Lane, where everyone knows everyone's business and respectfully keeps it to themselves and everyone else.
A drugs rehabilitation centre is set for development on the lane, prompting the locals and their snobbish neighbours from the next road over, to unite in protest. This fragile alliance is forced to take on the combined weight of the Political and Media realms, when an addict dies in suspicious circumstances.
Elsewhere, a dark past that has haunted the lane for a century intertwines the fates of a teenager and a homeless alcoholic. Is it supernatural? Or is reality actually, more frightening?
Finally, a man from a well-heeled part of the city blows into the lane, full of confidence and short on affection for his neighbours. When confronted with an impending loss, his friends fade into the digital world, leaving him to face this problem alone; but then, no man is an island...
Clementine Lane is a humorous and poignant panorama of contemporary Dublin.
