An Irish twist on Gianni Di Gregorio’s acclaimed 2008 Italian hit Mid-August Lunch (Pranzo di ferragosto), and winner of the BFI London Film Festival Audience Award.

Darren Thornton’s uplifting and tender comedy-drama Four Mothers follows an unlikely found family on an emotionally charged journey of self-discovery and acceptance.

Edward (James McArdle), a talented novelist on the cusp of literary success, is juggling his work with the responsibility of caring for his elderly mother, Alma (Fionnula Flanagan). As the excitement of a US book tour builds, he is suddenly faced with an unexpected twist as his three friends decide to take an impromptu Pride getaway to Spain, leaving their mothers in his care.
