Fighting against the class imbalance between them and a haunting family history, Finn finds himself sinking deeper into London’s underbelly. He quickly becomes a front runner for East London’s most notorious gangsters. Working hard to keep his growing relationship with Margaret separate from his criminal ties, the lines between the two worlds begin to blur. Finn fights for a place to belong. “The Boy From Dublin” is a story of poverty, corruption, love, and grief. Finn must decide where home truly lies, in the arms of the girl he loves, or in the shadow of a past that refuses to let him go.
