The Brothers, a highly acclaimed documentary film by Richard Fitzgerald, commissioned by RTE television, and nominated in The Irish Film & Television awards, a beautiful portrayal of the lives of two elderly farmers living on an isolated farm at the butt of the Commeragh mountains, filmed entirely by Richard over a period of ten years. It has since won other awards and been screened at film festivals around the world. Produced by Nemeton Television Productions, co-directed by Mikey O' Flatharta Darba. "there
was a close bond between them, neither would marry for fear of upsetting
the other, they lived their lives entirely for each other. The film
culminates in the unexpected dramatic events which arose when one of
the brothers died" |
