Director Niall Heery will introduce this film.

Game of Thrones’ Maisie Williams excels as Abbie whose athletic ambitions are encouraged by her fitness fanatic, if slightly deluded, stepdad Frank (James Nesbitt). When her biological father Ray aims to reconnect with his ex-wife and daughter after 12 years, it adds a lot of disruption to their lives. Unfortunately Ray’s best efforts seem to lead to chaos, turning any good intentions he may have into a comic catastrophe.

Screening as part of the 2015 Spring/Summer IFI Schools Programme.
