Christy

After the death of his mother, Christy ended up with his aunt and cousins, in an environment of crime and hopelessness. His older brother Shane did everything he could to get him out of there. With the best of intentions, he takes Christy into his home, but it is a temporary solution: as soon as Christy turns eighteen, he will have to find his own place. Unexpectedly, Christy discovers his talent for cutting hair. Brendan Canty brings a heartwarming story in a rough climate. Visually, the film is a fine piece of craftsmanship. The alternation between static shots and close-ups captures both the rawness of the environment and the emotional storm in Christy’s head. in collaboration with D'Oranje Giraffen
