About the Movie
In 1921, Jimmy Gralton’s sin was to build a dance hall on a rural crossroads in Ireland. As the hall grew in popularity, its socialist and free-spirited reputation brought it to the attention of the church and politicians who forced Jimmy to flee and the hall to close. A decade later, at the height of the Depression, Jimmy returns to reintegrate into the community. Seeing the poverty and growing cultural oppression, he makes the decision to reopen the hall.
