The film is “set in the West of Ireland and which follows the story of a struggling musician who writes an album for Amy, the girl he’s supposed to marry but is now in the arms of a global pop star.”

The cast also includes Hollywood star Patrick Bergin and Sean Maguire who has EastEnders, Meet The Spartans, LA Blues and Waterland to name but four on his CV.
