The reviews for BALLYWALTER are in! The Irish Independent says “Patrick Kielty is a revelation and Seána Kerslake exemplary in this moving drama. Together they created something wonderful, something unique, something that deserves to find an audience. Armed with a moving, meaningful screenplay by Stacey Gregg, BALLYWALTER speaks only when it needs to. It is, at its core, a refreshingly honest tale about depression, about what happens when the light begins to fade”.
A new film featuring Patrick Kielty in his first dramatic role will be released in cinemas next month. The trailer for BALLYWALTER, which sees the incoming LATE LATE SHOW host star alongside IFTA nominee and BAD SISTERS star, Seána Kerslake, has just been released. The comedy-drama was written by Belfast’s Stacey Gregg and has been produced by Break Out Pictures and the Elysian Film Group. It marks English actor Prasanna Puwanarajah’s directorial debut and is described as “a life affirming story of how unexpected connections can change the course of our lives”. Set in Ballywalter in Northern Ireland, Kielty, who hails from Dundrum in Co. Down, plays Shane, who has holed up in the town following the breakdown of his marriage.
