Daniel is a decent young man, married to Jane, still living at his father's home. When his father dies, it his up to him to organize his funeral. On this painful morning, the suitable grave expression on his face, Daniel is ready to welcome his father's friends and relatives. But preserving the dignity inherent in such a circumstance will be a hard task. Particularly with an undertaker who botches his work, the return from the USA from his famous but selfish brother, his cousin's fiancé who has accidentally ingested drugs, the presence a moron who takes advantage of the sad event to win back the heart (or rather the body) of a woman who is about to marry another, of a handicapped old uncle who is also the most unbearable pain in the neck. To cap it all, Daniel notices the presence among the mourners of a mysterious dwarf nobody else seems to know...

Worth watching, but quite a slow starter. However, once things get going, it has some real laugh out loud moments.
The cast do well, although I personally found Ewen Bremner somewhat out of place in this.
The movie has some colourful language, and colourful situations, involving drugs, homosexuality, disability, and of course, death.
Overall, not a bad way to spend 90 mins
7.6/10
