What happens

I'll Sleep When I'm Dead is a 2003 crime film directed by Mike Hodges (his last film), from a screenplay by Trevor Preston. The film bears striking similarities to Hodges' directorial debut, the classic 1970 crime drama Get Carter. Both films feature men who return to their former hometowns to investigate the death of a brother who has died under mysterious circumstances. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
