Υπόθεση:

Two teenaged lads vie for the attention of a nubile young German tourist visiting the beautiful Irish countryside in this heartfelt coming-of-age drama.

Dagmar Hirtz does a fine turn in her directorship of this truly Irish tale of strong filial bond and its accompanying trials, tribulations and joys. Ruaidhri Conroy and Ian Shaw play the two lads in question (Dominic and Patrick) who have been abandoned by their mom and must fend for themselves in a poor region of Western Ireland. Due in no small part to the parental absence, the sibs develop this strong bond. But, alas, enter the femme fatale, Anya, who is initially Patrick’s (the older boy) tutor. She is somewhere between the ages of the brothers which makes her a love target for both lads. At first, she falls in love with Patrick, much to Dominic’s dismay. But mom, well played by Marianne Faithful, comes home for a bit, and adds more fuel to the emotional fire. The trio (plus the dog!) then goes to Dublin, without mom, to try to start a new life. Things get dicey in Dublin and Anya’s interest starts to shift to Dominic who loves her too, but is averse to stepping on older bro’s toes.
