Turlough is estranged from his brother Lorcan who has Down Syndrome. Following the death of their mother, Turlough returns from London to sell the family farm in Tyrone, Northern Ireland. But a ‘bucket list’ which sets out their late mum’s unfulfilled wishes is discovered and the brothers set about ticking off the list in her honour with hilarious consequences. Directors Tom Berkeley and Ryan White have constructed a funny short that can teach us a lot about reconnecting with our loved ones.
