IT’S NOW OR NEVER

The Irish West Coast, both harsh and beautiful, creates the frame for this humoristic documentary.The main character is Jimmy, middle-aged and lonely. Of earthly creatures seen from his window is an equally lonely cow, which has been bought by Jimmy from his bachelor friend, Austin. Jimmy would like a woman to share his life and looks up a matchmaker who dutifully asks him about his wishes and preferences. Jimmy bides his time, fantasizes, chats with the boys, asks God for advice and builds stone dikes, all the while humming the song “It’s now or never”. Then, this rugged man gets a telephone call from the matchmaker.
