David Blair's 'Mystics' starring Milo O'Shea and David Kelly is the closing film of the Cork Film Festival on 19 October. This film is written by Wesley Burrows and directed by David Blair. It stars a who's-who of Irish talent. Two venerable stars of stage and screen, Milo O'Shea and David Kelly, play amiable shysters running a lucrative psychic consultancy, pretending to communicate with the dead. It's a harmless scam, but one that gets increasingly complicated when a local gangster dies and his family attempts to communicate with him.
For 'increasingly complicated' read 'downright dangerous' when the dead gangster actually makes contact. Liam Cunningham and Maria Doyle Kennedy also star and this film is due for a Halloween release befitting its supernatural themes.
