Its a pivotal time for the five unmarried Mundy sisters. Europe is on the brink of war, their small village is on the verge of incredible change and the sisters have troubles of their own. The head of the household is the imperious, eldest sister Kate (Streep), barely holding the family together with income from her teaching job. Her sisters, saintly caretaker Agnes (Brid Brennan); the simple-minded Rose (Sophie Thompson); earthy Maggie (Kathy Burke) and the romantic Christina (Catherine McCormack) all do piecework and odd jobs to support themselves and Christinas beloved illegitimate young son Michael.r r Into their lives come two men who threaten to disrupt this delicate family union: Michaels errant father Gerry (Rhys Ifans) and the sisters…brother (Michael Gambon), a mentally unbalanced priest returning from decades of missionary work in remote Africa.r r Despite their hardships, the sisters are able to embrace life and all its complexities and dance with joy in their hearts. Dancing At Lughnasa is a poignant drama featuring brilliant ensemble acting, gorgeous photography and music by Grammy Award-winning composer Bill Whelan (Riverdance).r r Actors Meryl Streep, Michael Gambon, Rhys Ifans, Catherine McCormack, Kathy Burke, Sophie Thompson, Brid Brennan, Darrell Johnston, Lorcan Cranitch, John Kavanagh, Marie Mullen, Dawn Bradfield, Peter Gowen and Kate OTooleDirector Pat OConnorCertificate PGYear 1998Languages English – Dolby Digital (2.
