When Danny (Leech) sees Bridget, the woman he loves, boarding a train with a stranger, he decides to follow them.  What he discovers reveals a shocking truth.  Working from a taut script by Roger Karshan, director P.J. Dillon crafts a tense, beautifully photographed film that is hard to forget.

    Directed by David Gleeson.
    With Eriq Ebouaney, James Frain, Gerard McSorley.
    Ireland, 2006, 35mm, color, 93 min.

Joe Yumba, a Congolese ex-pat with a mysterious past is granted asylum in Ireland and is later joined by a refugee woman and her nine-year-old son, who he claims are his family. Employed as a security guard for a Dublin bank, all seems well until a ruthless gang kidnaps Joe’s family. Their plan is to force him to help them break into the bank’s vault, but the cunning Joe turns the tables on the gang and begins to play its members off of each other. One of the most acclaimed Irish films of recent years, David Gleeson’s exhilarating heist film is both a compelling character study and an unflinching look at contemporary Dublin. “A terrific film that reminds us what big screens were made for,” The Sunday Independent.
