As part of Cine4’s initiative aiming to develop original, high-quality feature films in the Irish language (having produced the Oscar-nominated film The Quiet Girl), Tarrac is a heart-warming, feel-good drama set against the wondrous landscape of Kerry. A young woman (played by Kelly Gough) returns to her home in Kerry after her father (Lorcan Cranitch) suffers a heart attack. Alienated from him, the film is about re-connection with family, with her delightful band of women friends and her past, especially the competitive world of naomhóg (a native Irish boat) rowing. Uniquely Irish and so fun.
