Writer/director Damien O'Callaghan, who gave us the smart and affecting independent feature The Gift, is back a new micro-budget comedy-drama, Tradition.

On his last day on the bench, District Court Judge Seamus Moynihan finds himself presiding over the most controversial case his court – and his town – has ever seen.

It stars Paul Ronan (Twice Shy), Pascal Scott (Grabbers), James Daly, Laura Reidy, and Brendan Grace (Father Ted).

Tradition is written by Claire Corrigan and Damian O’Callaghan, who also produced the film. Director of Photography is Conor Fleming (Poison Pen), with Declan O'Shea (The Gift) as Editor.

Tradition shot on location in Killarney, County Kerry, where O'Callaghan has lived for the last 21 years.
