About This Movie

Nothing to be Done (2023) is a unique piece, really. You feel it’s like a meditation on loss, with this almost hypnotic pacing that draws you into the introspection.

It’s set against the backdrop of Galway, and you can't help but feel that the city itself is a character—its streets echo memories of friendships and farewells. The performances are raw and vulnerable; they linger in your mind long after viewing. There’s a distinct atmosphere of melancholy and nostalgia throughout. It’s not your typical drama, more of an experience, really, and that's what sets it apart in today's film landscape.
