Iceland’s answer to Victor Meldrew

THE GRUMP, the hilarious Icelandic culture-clash satire, about a stubborn, sour-faced old farmer with a rose-tinted view of the past, will be screened in the Town Hall Theatre on Sunday at 8pm.

After a bad fall, The Grump is forced to move from his family farm to the city home of his career-focused daughter-in-law. Struggling to exist in this new world, he seems to do nothing but fight with everyone around him, but it becomes apparent that the old fellow could still teach the modern world a trick or two. The film won the 2015 Jussi Award for Best Actor.

Tickets are available from the Town Hall on 091 - 569777 or www.tht.ie
