'Us Boys' is the story of Ernie and Stewart Morrow and their relationship to the world at the end of their long winding lane. Rarely leaving the glen where they live, the 20th century has seemingly passed them by. These men are two bachelors, who happen to be protestant, and who live on a family farm in the Glens of Antrim, Northern Island, thirty miles from Belfast, and whose lives have been unscathed by the conflict in the province. They live in a way their ancestors - of one hundred or even two hundred years ago - would recognise as familiar. Rural bachelors, rarely washing, living without 'the electric' and living on a diet of fresh air, hard work, potatoes, white bread, cigarettes and tea, their lives have continued unchanged for seventy years. But 75 year old Stewart's health is deteriorating, and Ernie at 78, insists on going it alone at 'Old Church' with twenty head of cattle, one hundred sheep and countless fowl. He will not admit he is becoming dependent on the visits fom his brother Robert and nephew Adrian, who live further down the glen, or that he likes the changes to his life that are slowly being introduced.
