A plasterer writes a novel, something which he had never contemplated doing until one night his internal pain forced him to begin typing.
In Marseille ostensibly to finish a screenplay based on his book Butcher A Hog, Brian O' talks about his process and struggle to continue writing.
He walks and drives around Marseille looking for an epiphany... "Brian O' " tells the story of a working-class plasterer by trade who happened to write a book. Brian O' desires to climb above his mundane existence. Thus far he has achieved no commercial success.
Through Brian O's unscripted narration, we experience his struggles as he faces a dilemma of whether he should continue to create art . We come to learn that what is truly tormenting him is a traumatic childhood.
In New York, I studied acting with Michael Moriarty and Henry Newman Madden. I studied screen writing and film making at NYU
and worked on 20 short films.
I acted in Friends (Director Tom Jarmusch) and wrote most of the piece. On stage I performed as a policeman in Lemonade by Eve Ensler.

Author Brian O’Sullivan was born in Ealing, west London in the UK, of Irish working-class parents. His childhood was spent in both London and Ireland (Kerry), but he’s called New York City home for most of his adulthood. Upon moving to the city in 1986, he joined up with other Irish men doing construction work and indulging in nights of debauchery. O’Sullivan has struggled with severe injuries, as well as trauma from his harsh childhood. He underwent seventeen treatments of electroshock therapy in an effort to conquer his demons.
