OVERVIEW

  • Synopsis

    Strokehauling explores the life of a small-town draper’s assistant. On the surface, he is awkward, friendly and none too exciting but inside his head the world explodes in a cacophony of sound and landscape and heroic deeds. He moves from the outside world to the inside of his head by running, physically running along the roads and laneways of rural Ireland while mentally exploring the landscape of his dreams.
