Barra O'Connor

In the barren west coast of Ireland, a rusted, iron cable car connects Dursey Island to the mainland, hanging precariously over a wild Atlantic Ocean. Between the waves and the wind, storms and secrets brew - dividing or reuniting family. For years, Ciaran has kept a relationship with his estranged father hidden. Following the death of their mother, his older brother Padraig returns to the island. Everyone knows everyone here, and secrets have a talent at getting out - This Town Still Talks About You is a universal story of human connection against a stark landscape, an atmospheric exploration of the Irish family identity.

Dursey Island is linked to the mainland by a single cable car. This lifeline allows its people to call Dursey Island home. Each day it brings new people, challenges, and life to this island.
