Darren Thornton’s second feature is a delightful and heartfelt dramedy about one people-pleasing son and four extremely demanding mothers.
Edward is a budding novelist and full-time carer to his bossy mother. Patient and dedicated, he fears leaving her to promote his latest book overseas. An unexpected complication will come in the form of three additional prickly mothers dumped on his doorstep by his friends when they trade Irish suburbia for the sunny delights of Pride in Gran Canaria. What follows is a hilarious weekend, punctuated by deeply moving moments.
