Change comes to rural Ireland in this short documentary about the fate of the public phone box in the modern era. Describing these phone boxes as having been a ‘lifeline for rural Ireland’, Bye Bye Now allows people to describe the ways the phone box impacted on their lives. Recovering touching and funny memories of their use, the film is a charming ode to this obsolete mode of communication.
