Cowboys and Angels

Wednesday, October 20, 7:30pm

When young, geeky Shane’s father dies in a drunk driving accident, he is forced to put his dreams on hold and take a position as a civil servant in Limerick City. He moves into a flat with fashionable Vincent (Allen Leach), a flamboyantly gay art student. Despite both young men’s conviction that they have nothing in common, Shane (Michael Legge) and Vincent find themselves embarking on an unlikely friendship. But everything Shane has worked for is thrown into jeopardy when he finds himself sucked into the sordid world of one of his shady new neighbors. Soon he is facing choices he never thought he would have to make. COWBOYS & ANGELS is both sweet and dangerous, questioning our ideas of what we are capable of and how much we are willing to sacrifice to turn our dreams into reality.
