Jimmy's Hall

Jimmy's Hall

After several years in America where he witnessed the ravages of the depression, Irish communist leader Jimmy Gralton returns to 1930s County Leitrim to grieve for his recently deceased brother and help his mother with the upkeep of the family farm. The local children have nowhere to play so they implore Jimmy to re-open the Pearse-Connolly Hall. By re-opening the doors to the hall, Jimmy re-ignites tensions with the church represented by the vociferous parish priest, Father Sheridan.
