Irish Film Institute -The Song Cycle

The Song Cycle

Veteran musician and filmmaker Nick Kelly sets off to cycle from his home in Dublin to Glastonbury, carrying all his gear on his bike and playing in pubs and clubs along the way. He’s accompanied by his easy-going musical partner Seán Millar, who travels by bus to join Nick onstage each evening, and by intrepid cameraman Céin O’Brien who films the agony and ecstasy of the odyssey. Nick turns 60 on the day they play Glastonbury, officially outliving his famous politician father. A funny and thought-provoking film about Mother Nature, Father Time, and Brothers on the Road.
