Stones in his Pockets

Stones in his Pockets

A small town in County Kerry has been taken over by a Hollywood film crew, and the local population is excited and enthusiastic about being part of a huge movie. But the glamour quickly fades as the reality of being “extras” sets in and a local teenager commits suicide by drowing with stones in his pockets after being humiliated by the movie’s star. Two of those extras, Charlie Conlan and Jake Quinn tell the story of the impact this movie set has upon the local community. Charlie and Jake play thirteen other eccentric and eclectic characters between them, portraying both the comedic and tragic effects of the Hollywood dream in a small Irish town.
