Tuesday Movie Fest: Irish Fest

Director Neil Jordan and actor Colin Farrell honor their Irish heritage with this week's Movie Fest film, "Ondine".  It combines the Irish myth of the selkie, a mermaid-like creature that can become human, with real human drama.  Syracuse is a fisherman trying to get back on his feet when he hauls up a beautiful woman in his trawling nets.  His daughter is convinced that she is a selkie and it seems this might all really be a fairy tale until reality sets in once again.  A gentle tale told with a beautiful musical backdrop.  This free movie will be shown in the Community Room of the North Shore Library.
