6pm / Dreamtown / 87 mins / Ireland / Screen 6

Directed by Steven McKenna. Mickey Richards, a delusional, aging rocker who never realised his dreams, lives a care-free, rock ‘n’ roll life, spending his nights in bars bragging about his glory days to a group of youths. And then there’s Gina Fox, the young bartender… Mickey’s life has only amounted to a failed marriage and a neglected relationship with his musically talented son, Alan. Mickey decides it’s time he shows Alan what he’s been missing. When Alan is introduced to Gina through a decorating job at her house, it means competition for Gina’s heart. This, and Mickey’s attempts to impress Alan, only creates an even bigger wedge between the two of them. It’s time for Mickey to wake up, and stop living in that Dreamtown.
