One Hundred Mornings


A post-apocalyptic film set in the Wicklow mountains, this story reminded me of the yet to be released Cormac McCarthy film "The Road" and a play ("The Birds" by Conor McPherson) that we recently took in at The Gate Theater here in Dublin.

Without the distractions of modern daily life (television, shopping, work, school, shopping, television, work, shopping...) when survival means the true necessities of life -- food and shelter -- who can you trust and how far will your moral compass take you?
