The Hotel Receptionist
Uma competição de música irlandesa tradicional atrai os melhores músicos da Irlanda. Os dois principais rivais nessa disputa são John Joe (Bernard Hill) – que, com sua banda, interpreta temas folclóricos e representa o condado de Clare – e Jimmy (Colin Meaney). O detalhe é que, não bastando, os dois líderes são irmão que não se falam há muito tempo.
Annie McPhelimy
Belfast 1972: The politically naive Bernie is trying to bring up a normal family in less than normal surroundings. Her best friend is accidentally shot dead by the IRA, and her neighbours are constantly raided by the army. In this climate of fear she stands up and condemns the murders. Criticising both factions, her call for a ceasefire is interpreted as an attack against the IRA, and as her peace movement takes momentum, she and her family are placed in the frontline.
