After tragic circumstances that have him locked up for ten years in a mental institution, he is released to begin his new career as a performance artist. His new life in - as he describes it -.'Feculent Art' takes ridiculous twists and turns, and has him on the run for crimes of obscenity and indecent behaviour. Appalled by his growing fan base, the snobs and guardians of polite society and the arts are determined to bring the incredible flying man of Achill down to earth.
