An Crisis

An Crisis

Episode #1.1 (1x1)


: 07, 2010

An Crisis is upon us and nobody’s job is safe. ACT, An Comhairle Teanga, guardian of An Gaeilge, producer of the first Irish-language slasher film, is for the chop. For ten years Setanta De Paor has been acting director of ACT. But that’s all about to change, as an immovable object, in an Irish-language funding body, meets an unstoppable force, in government cutbacks. And Setanta’s not the only employee in ACT resisting the blunt charms of Caoimhe, the minister’s hit-woman. Nobody is quite sure what he actually does, but Muiris has been working on his crossword in the offices of ACT for probably twenty years now, with no intention of going anywhere. Receptionist Aoife is in the job of her dreams. Where else would a recovering Riverdancer go to convalesce and make some money? They say the first cut is the deepest. Maybe out in the real world but not in Irish-language promotion. And certainly not in Irish-language serial killer films.
