In Bruton, Costello is finally able to hold a part-time job and live her best life. But as cracks in their family unit begin to form, their seemingly perfect new life begins to deteriorate - with devastating results.
Costello Jones is a devoted mother who wants more for her precocious young daughter, Iris. As she hustles to survive, Costello leans on Selby, Iris' pseudo father (and Costello's pseudo soulmate), and Gloria, the duo's loyal yet chaotic godmother/best friend - together forming a makeshift swaggerous family bound by a complex but deep-rooted love and defiance towards a system built against them. An extraordinary tale of a mother's love for her daughter, Rain Dogs explores a dysfunctional family on the fringes of society, attempting to go straight in a crooked world.
