Movies

Earl Clancy is a small-town cinema owner. During one eventful Friday night screening from hell, he faces a myriad of disasters, any one of which could sink him.

Drawing from writer and director David Gleeson’s own experience growing up in a family of cinema owners where his father’s 78-year career marked the longest in the cinema business in Ireland, if not the world, this film is a love letter to a peculiarly Irish cinema experience, which was as much about connecting with people as it was about the movie.
