Season Main Programme

A tender and quietly radical drama and feature debut from Donncha Gilmore, featuring breakout performances from newcomers Liath Hannon and Adam Lunnon-Collery.

Girls & Boys tells the story of rugby player Jace (Lunnon-Collery) meeting aspiring filmmaker Charlie (Hannon) at a college party. Both attend Trinity, but their worlds couldn’t be more different—Charlie is trans, her circle full of queer artists and creatives, while Jace sticks with the more straight-laced camaraderie of his rugby teammates.

When the party is suddenly shut down by the Guards, the two find themselves alone in the streets of nighttime Dublin. As they wander the city, sharing secrets, dreams, and fears about life after college, a surprising revelation from their shared past threatens to upend their fragile connection. Jace must confront not only his past, but the social identity he’s long taken for granted.
