Summary
Johnny sits on a high ledge writing a suicide note. The building's caretaker, a young policeman, a priest and others - including his mum, and girlfriend Eileen - visit Johnny on his ledge and the conversations they have with him satirically demonstrate various degrees of hypocrisy and callousness. Observant and funny.
