Irish Film Institute -As Lathair

As Lathair

Director: Paul Rowley


”As Lathair’ is a reworking of the Western genre. The film uses a fragmented, episodic narrative to tell the story of a cowboy and a bounty hunter who are locked into pursuit over the brutal landscapes of Baja, Mexico. Using a hypnotic, dreamlike visual style, and a lyrical narration based in Irish folklore and history, this experimental film parallels impressionistic, multi-layered depictions of Western bravado with narrated stories of displacement and removal.’ – Paul Rowley
(2002, 72mins)
