Outside Mullingar

Anthony and Rosemary are two introverted misfits straddling 40. Anthony has spent his entire life on a farm in rural Ireland, a state of affairs that- due to his painful shyness- suits him well. Rosemary lives right next door, determined to have him, watching the years slip away. With Anthony’s father threatening to disinherit him and a land feud simmering between their families, Rosemary has every reason to fear romantic catastrophe. But then, in this very Irish story with a surprising depth of poetic passion, these yearning eccentric souls fight their way towards some kind of happiness. Their journey is funny as hell, and ultimately deeply moving. A compassionate, delightful work about how it’s never too late to take a chance on love.
