When not playing for change, an Irish street musician fixes vacuum cleaners in his father’s repair shop. One day, a flower-selling Czech immigrant shows up with her broken vacuum and announces that she is also a musician. Drawn to each other—and to each other’s musical talents—they launch a career together. With time, their musical bond becomes even more personal. Director John Carney has cast musicians, rather than actors, in these finely drawn roles, and the result, a kind of cinema verité musical, is near perfect.
Dubliner John Carney
began his film career
directing music videos for
the Irish band The Frames,
as well as directing two
award-winning short films.
He also co-wrote and
directed three episodes
of the hit Radio Telefís
Éireann television series,
Bachelors Walk.
