The Rising of the Moon

Poignant vignettes depicting traditional Irish country life come to life, inspired by a collection of short stories.

Old Irish country life is portrayed through three vignettes, adapted from short stories. The first, "The Majesty of the Law", features a police officer struggling to arrest a traditionalist for assault, sparking sympathy from the whole village. The second, "One Minute's Wait", showcases a train station and its passengers, with comedic setups. The third, "1921", tells the story of an Irish nationalist's daring escape from condemnation.
