Since then the film is on a limited theatrical release and at various venues nationwide and as one night only events.
The plot of the movie revolves around Wacker and Tony – a pair of down-on-their-luck videographers – who are about to video a wedding, and they think their lives can’t get any worse.
Wacker’s wife has chucked him out, he has been beaten up over money she borrowed for fertility treatment, and a drink-fuelled incident the night before has put his friendship with Tony under huge strain.
But their problems are only beginning: Big Jim – a notorious loan shark who is also having a pretty bad time of it after learning about his 16 year old daughter’s pregnancy – visits the church and dies after a scuffle with Tony.
The videographers decide to try and conceal their crime before any wedding guests arrive. What happens next is ungodly. For tickets to the Killarney screening click here
