Overview:
Set in rural Ireland. Believing that "a man is measured by his enemies", Harry Maloney (Colm Meany) sets out to ruin George O'Flaherty – the most powerful man in town, who not only owns the local pub and most of the businesses in the area, but is also the local matchmaker. When Harry's son Gus (Cillian Murphy) – upon whom Harry regularly heaps abuse (mostly mental and verbal) – falls for the lovely Eileen, George helps get the two together. During this time, Harry quietly mobilizes his dastardly plans.

Harry G - #HarrydieEhre(de)
2018-03-23
The show #HarrydieEhre is the second programme of the successful comedy breakthrough Harry G and was recorded live in winter 2017 at the sold-out Circus Krone in Munich. Wannabes and trends are the target of his programme, he dissects them without regard for losses as passionately as unabashedly and does not stop at his audience in the process. Is brunch a man's job? Meat or vegetables? Single or in a relationship? Which dating portal? Harry G answers all these questions and many more openly, honestly and... very subjective. If you think you're cool because you own rollerblades, run to theme parties in white clothes or post your food on Facebook, you're wrong: Here he will be proven wrong.

Four tales about unfaithfulness. The story takes, almost completely, the form of theatre and rations the action in four acts perfectly divided one from the other, which build an effective reflection about unfaithfulness. However, as it is usual in Jaime Humberto Hermosillo’s cinema, where on many times the sexual tension defines the characters’ psyche who become more complex and multidimensional, the approach is not subject to the moral margins, already outworn by the melodrama.
