The Independent

"A rising star who has creased sides in the UK, US and mainland Europe. The Castlebar native creates a tempo all of his own, unpacking his deadpan, immaculately woven anecdotal riffs with a smooth pace and a dark twinkle that has no qualms about upsetting safe sensibilities (as all comedians should)." - 04/01/2020

"Staunton is phenomenal in the lead role" - ukfilmreview.co.uk

Sea monsters, self help and sexual utopia. With his marriage crumbling, Seamus, a struggling fisherman, is unexpectedly offered the delicious pleasures of an unusual new life. But to turn his desperation into hope, Seamus will need to put his trust in a group of misfits whose project becomes more and more deranged. This absurdist dark comedy asks if there really is more out there for each of us or “IS THIS IT?”
