Tarrac

Aoife Ni Bhraoin returns home to help her father Brendan ‘The Bear’ O’Briain in his recovery from a heart attack. During this time, Aoife faces the grief of her mother that she hasn’t dealt with until now. Aoife reacquaints with a group of rowers and this all-female team, who against the odds, take on a high stakes Naomhóg rowing competition.

Directed by Declan Recks, Tarrac leans on a strong ensemble — Kelly Gough, Lorcan Cranitch, Kate Nic Chonaonaigh — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2023.
