Riders to the Sea

1969 · 36 min · ★ 10.0 · TV Movie, Drama

A one-act tragedy, the play is set at Inishmaan in the Aran Islands, and like all of Synge’s plays it is noted for capturing the poetic dialogue of rural Ireland. The plot is based not on the traditional conflict of human wills but on the hopeless struggle of a people against the impersonal.

Directed by Ognjen Miličević · Written by John Millington Synge
