New Irish Feature Film: HORSESHOE Plus Directors Q&A

Winner of Best Irish First Feature at the Galway Film Fleadh 2025

All families are mad, not least the Canavans. A drama comedy with a twist set in the wild West of Ireland. When Colm, the head of the family, dies, there are few who mourn his passing, not even his four estranged adult children. But the legalities of his will must be observed, and more than one Canavan sibling is harbouring secrets. As the Canavans return to the family home to the West of Ireland, the fate of the family unit, their sanity and the Canavan estate all hang in the balance.

“Blending free-flowing, sibling banter with moments of affection, comedy, and melancholy, this feature debut from Adam O’Keefe and Edwin Mullane, filmed in the harsh winter landscapes of Sligo and Leitrim, is anchored by powerful performances from, among others, Carolyn Bracken, Lalor Roddy, Jed Murray, and Mary Murray”.
