3 Friends
Based on a Colm Tóibín short story, 3 Friends follows Fergus, a pensive, young Irishman who is propelled on a powerful journey that begins at his mother’s funeral and wake. There, Fergus confronts how his family shapes and defines him, only to continue this journey at a beach rave, where he becomes aware of the defining impact his friendships have on him. Ultimately, it is through death, grief, joy, and sex that Fergus reaches inside to know himself.
