- Synopsis
- In the Connemara Gaeltacht, an English-speaking director is producing a stage presentation of the life of Art O’Laoire (Arthur Leary) with a group of Irish-speaking actors. He decides on a format of live action with filmed inserts. Quickly, though, there is a blurring between the present and the 18th century events being depicted in the play/film. This is emphasized in the personality clash between the director and the actor playing Art O’Laoire. The blurring of the past and present is reinforced with the modern-day director playing Morris, the 18-century landlord who was given the O’Laoire family’s ancestral lands when O’Laoire was forced to flee to Continental Europe as one of the Wild Geese.
