Synopsis

The Carricks and the Ballys are two warring gangs growing up in the wilds of South West Ireland. They've been feuding for longer than anyone can remember - though no one seems to know exactly how it all started. After one of the Ballys is insulted on the bridge dividing their two villages, tensions escalate, buttons are stolen and battle lines drawn for a hilarious final showdown in a ruined castle. A timeless tale of teen rivalry, this charming film draws parallels with the Irish 'Troubles' without ever wearing them on its sleeve.

What our educators say

"It really is a chance for us to open children's minds to the power of film not just as a vehicle for entertainment but also as a way in to understanding their own world and the worlds of people whose lives are very different."
