A clever spin on the difficulties Irish speakers can face in their own country, Fluent Dysphasia has the beer-swilling, pub-crawling Murph (Stephen Rea) suffer a head injury that leaves him capable of only speaking in Irish. Suddenly appearing terrifying to his non-Irish speaking friends, it falls to his oft-neglected daughter Jane (Jayne Stynes) to help him out of his predicament in this satirical, linguistically-dexterous short.
