A mysterious boy bursts into an internet café, claiming he is being chased by a murderous foe. The owner does not share his urgency, nor does he seem overly keen on helping the boy, in fact his only advice is to sit at a computer, to 'take machine number 5'. With no alternative, the boy is forced to take a seat and hope that whatever he is running from won't find him in this place with no other exit than the door he came through. But as his fear and paranoia begin to take hold and alter the environment around him, the boy must decide who to trust before it's too late.

The Cocaine Famine is an Irish black comedy about cocaine and the futility of nationalism. Two Irish drug dealers, Jacko and his much-maligned sidekick Niallser, drag a captured cockney rival into an abandoned shed in the depths of rural Ireland. A stash of cocaine has gone missing, supplies are running low, and Jacko has his mind set on who is responsible. Things don't look good for Andy, the prisoner from London. Especially since the vengeful Jacko has a mighty bone to pick with the English. One that goes all the way back to the Famine. The interrogation spirals into a fiercely nationalistic debate about Anglo-Irish history, increasing the threat that something truly terrible is going to happen. Set in an isolated shed, our three characters play out this absurd scene in real time. The result is a short film full of playful humour and hard-hitting historical facts.
