Ryan, a young man cycling in and out of prison in Northern Ireland, finds fleeting purpose working with sheep in correctional programs.

What begins as a path toward rehabilitation slowly reveals itself as a deeper struggle: not just freedom from prison walls, but from the weight of grief, addiction, and community threats that shadow him outside.

in association with Dublin City Council & Musictown present

Sunday October 4th, 1.30pm
SCREENING: PHILIP LYNOTT: SONGS FOR WHILE I’M AWAY

FOLLOWED BY LIVE INTERVIEW WITH DIRECTOR EMER REYNOLDS & KILLIAN SUNDERMAN

Tickets: https://ifi.ie/films/phil-lynott-songs -for-while-im-away

An exclusive screening of Emer Reynolds’ moving documentary followed by a live interview with the director conducted by podcaster, comedian and Thin Lizzy nut Killian Sunderman.

Telling the story of a black, working-class boy who comes of age in 1960s Dublin, this feature documentary from maestra Emer Reynolds (The Farthest) paints a detailed portrait of one of Ireland’s greatest rock legends. The film explores the man and his music through his own words and through interviews with an array of admirers, friends and family, who speak about the public and private Lynott with warmth, authority and great dollops of humour. Reynolds chooses to focus meticulously on the creation of a powerful and varied body of work rather than dwell on the drink and drug dependency that blighted Lynott’s latter years before his death at 36.
