Garage is a landmark in Irish cinema. A beautifully portrayed cinematic drama interspersed with razor sharp shards of black humour, with acutely observed characters that leaves a lasting impression. The story follows Josie (Pat Shortt) who has spent 20 years as the caretaker of a crumbling petrol station in small-town Ireland. Despite loneliness and the fact that his neighbours treat him as a figure of fun, he's always good natured and happy. Garage is the story of Josie's hapless search for intimacy over the course of a summer which sees his little niche threatened and his life changed forever.
