Looking For Eric (15)

Eric Bishop is a postman whose life went into free-fall the day he ran out on his childhood sweetheart, Lily. Abandoned by his wife and forced to singlehandedly raise his two rebellious stepsons, Ryan and Jess, Eric is teetering on the brink of a mental breakdown, with only his workmates including Meatballs to keep him sane. After the latest fiery encounter with his boys, Eric takes one of Ryan's joints and begins talking to his favourite poster of Manchester United legend Eric Cantona, searching for inspiration. Miraculously, the footballer appears to Eric and becomes the postman's invisible friend, guiding the single father on a journey back to self-redemption.
