Taking its name from the massive football games played by school children, Thirty-Five Aside is the amusing tale of Philip Maguire (James Mahon), a young boy who struggles to settle into his new school. Unwelcomed by rowdy classmates Philip stumbles from one problem to the next, relying on his temperamental mother (Maria Hayden) to save him. Despite the darkness of much of its subject matter, Thirty Five Aside plays for laughs, with this black comedy scooping prizes at the London, Quebec, and Edinburgh Film Festivals among many others.
