Description
A major release from Initial films for Channel Four starring Stephen Rea and Richard Harris. Award-winning writer Billy Roche and director Gillies Mackinnon create a strange compelling world on the edge of society Eddie is a small-town hawker who dreams of a business of his own. Treated as little more than an errand boy by his employer John Power, the godfather of the local traveller community, his modest ambitions seem far beyond his grasp until Power becomes obsessed with a young traveller girl, Kathleen. On the night of their wedding Kathleen elopes with Power's nephew, Dermot, and GBP11,000 in dowry money. Eddy aids their escape and finds himself inextricably embroiled in the violent consequences..."A feisty flavourful script from Billy Roche...Trojan Eddie will please audiences still in search of old-fashioned storytelling values" Screen International
