Set in recession-hit Ireland, this acerbic social satire keeps the audience guessing to the very end.
GFT / Fri 26 Feb (18.00) | CCA / Sat 27 Feb, 2916 (15.45)
This violent and blackly humorous film deals with ‘econocide’: the act of committing suicide as a result of bad economic conditions. When Vernon (Game of Thrones’ John Bradley) and Harry (Killian Scott) lose their jobs, Vernon comes up with the unique idea of ‘trading’ – meeting up with someone else in a financial trap, and fighting it out to the death. The winner takes the life savings of the other person. Set in recession-hit Ireland, this acerbic social satire keeps the audience guessing to the very end.
