TRAD

TRAD

A surreal comedy about tradition in a mad place, TRAD is the hilarious tale of the very old Thomas and his even more aged 'da'. When Thomas reveals that he once fathered a son in a long-ago fling, the pair set off across the Irish countryside to seek the unknown child, with nothing more than a hobble and a limp to help them.
