The Drummer & The Keeper tells the story of an unlikely friendship between Gabriel, a rock’n’roll party animal newly-diagnosed with mental health issues, and Christopher, a 17-year-old goalkeeper with Asperger Syndrome who yearns to fit in.

This uplifting and comedic feature début from writer/director Nick Kelly deservedly won the Best Irish First Feature Award at last year’s Galway Film Fleadh.

A heartwarming story, showing the strength of the human bond, in the face of adversity.
