See 1980s Dublin through the eyes of fourteen-year-old Conor, who is looking for a break from a home strained by his parents' relationship and money troubles while trying to adjust to his new inner-city public school where the kids are rough and the teachers are rougher. He finds a glimmer of hope in the mysterious, über-cool Raphina. With the aim of winning her heart he invites her to star in his band's music videos. There's only one problem: he's not part of a band yet.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

A Musical Coming Of Age Story submitted by GJBarnett2 on August 24, 2016, 8:22pm with stereotypical characters and no unforeseeable plot developments. Watch "Footloose" instead.

A Gem of a Film submitted by S S on August 29, 2016, 12:52am This coming-of-age story set in Dublin captures the spirit of the 80's while exploring the ups and downs of a first love.

Fun! submitted by manz on January 6, 2017, 10:23am I so enjoyed this film. I love Conor's attitude and the fun the boys had putting the band together and learning to play together. And of course I don't mind teens who follow their dreams against odds.I wouldn't really call it a musical, more just lots of live music playing.

Really Good submitted by Lmin on July 3, 2018, 8:54pm The end is unclear, but the plot is amazing. Watching the band evolve is super cool. The plot unfolds well. A must-watch for all aspiring musicians.

Entertaining submitted by denisemw on July 17, 2020, 9:13pm Well done movie with good performances and 80s music.
