Redemption of a Rogue

Ireland 2020 | 95 minutes | English | Hebrew subtitles

Jimmy retunes to his hometown seeking reconciliation with his dying father and redemption for his sins. Moments after his arrival, a steady rain begins to pour. A condition in his father's will reveals that he must not be buried on a wet day or Jimmy and his brother will be disinherited. With no sign of the rain abating, Jimmy embarks on an existential journey to make amends. In this bold, darkly-comic debut, Philip Doherty has captured the austere beauty of the county and the claustrophobic texture of small-town life.
