Garage – Digital Restoration | Screening at the Irish Film Institute

Event Details

Working at a petrol station in a small midlands town, Josie, a simple, middle-aged man leads a monotonous and lonely life until a new co-worker opens up the possibility of new experiences. But his naivety leaves him defenseless against the misunderstandings and hostilities which ensue.

Lenny Abrahamson and writer Mark O’Halloran reunite to create a richly textured portrait of male loneliness and vulnerability in the Irish midlands with comedian Pat Shortt an absolute revelation in the role of Josie.

Digital restoration from 35mm created by the IFI Irish Film Archive for IFI’s Digital Restoration Project funded by Screen Ireland.
