Starring Dónall Ó Héalaí, Michael McElhatton, Peter Coonan and Siobhán O’Kelly, and introducing a stunning debut from 11 year old Saise Ní Chuinn, Arracht is a haunting tale of overcoming grief and the fight for survival. Set in Ireland, 1845, the film centers on fisherman Colmán Sharkey, who takes in a a stranger, Patsy, a former soldier, who arrives just ahead of the blight – a crop disease that caused the Great Plague, killing and displacing millions of Irish people. Arracht was filmed entirely on the west coast of ireland in Connemara.

“Tom Sullivan’s unmissable Arracht is a beautifully crafted murder ballad set against the Great Famine, featuring terrific turns from Dónall Ó Héalaí and newcomer Saise Ní Chuinn” – The Irish Times
