Synopsis: Set on a municipal tip (or dump), Two Wheel Tricycle is a hard-edged drama shot through with dark humour. Trawling through consumer waste, the characters are all searching for something -- to sell; to do up; to give their lives meaning -- as well as maybe a trike for their kid. As they return day after day, the barriers between them come down and they discover they have more in common than they first imagined. But they are themselves surplus to requirements in a consumer society, and eventually the chap from the Council has to do something about them.
