Damien is a refuse collector in a small provincial town. One day,
he comes across a partially decomposed body at the landfill site where
he works, along with a knife that he recognises as his own.
Determined to prove himself to his friends and mother, who all look
down on him, Damien sets about trying to unravel the mystery and
discover the identity of the killer. In the course of his
enquiry, he meets Julie, a hard up young divorcee who lives opposite
him. As his investigation gathers momentum, Damien becomes
convinced that he himself might be the killer...
