Quite the most lovely coming of age story of three brothers setting out on a quest to replace a watch won by their now ill father years before by at a small seaside town.
Driving across rural Ireland in a van that can barely run, seventeen-year old Noel is coming to terms with his father’s illness, middle brother Paudie is witty and vulgar, while the youngest sibling, Scwally, carries a light-saber with him continually although he has never seen Star Wars. What follows is a film that is deeply moving, poignant and funny, a bitter sweet evocation of youth, memory and the undying love for family and annoying siblings.
My Brothers is a testament to the genuine, gentle and honest power of cinema and a film that can connect – and deliver – on all levels to al audiences.
