Storyline:
Donal is a 14-year old who develops a passion for greyhound racing. He works in a kennel, which is owned by Good Joe. Good Joe promises Donal ownership of Donal’s favorite greyhound, The Mighty Celt, if the animal wins three races in a row. Meanwhile, Donal’s mother, Kate, must adjust her life when O, a man from her past, returns. The political climate of Ireland serves as the backdrop of this story.
User review:
Low budget indeed, but worked with intelligence, feeling and genuine talent. A sincere and clean view towards the relationship between dogs and humans.
From the professional point of view, it’s also entirely commendable. Well chosen and managed actors – the boy was surprisingly natural and expressive, and the trainer composed a credible and complex portrait. The director had the skill to build up very realistic tensions between the two leading characters, dramatically working up his way to the tragic peak of the dog’s slaying – a scene that literally tears one’s heart, and not by using cheap tricks!
Not only the movie touches the deep soul of all the people who love, understand and respect animals, but is also depicts a honorable piece of good cinematic work. Congratulations – and thanks! 🙂
