Irish Film Festival London is delighted to close this year’s festival with Rachael Moriarty and Peter Murphy’s Irish language film, which is full of the joy of life and Irish community spirit. Following the film there will be a live Q&A with directors Rachael Moriarty & Peter Murphy.
Róise & Frank tells the story of the recently widowed Róise (BrÃd Nà Neachtain) who in a small Irish seaside town is struggling in the aftermath of her husband Frank’s passing. Grief-stricken and lonely, Róise has distanced herself from the world around her and those dearest to her. But when a stray dog starts to follow her every move, a rejuvenated Róise starts to believe in the reincarnation of her husband and the power of enduring life in its next, hopeful steps.
