The Song Cycle and Q&A

Screening Followed by Q&A

Nick Kelly will attend the screening with his bike and guitar. He will answer audience questions and maybe even play a few tunes!

In 2022, musician and filmmaker Nick Kelly cycled from his home in Dublin to the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, England-carrying his guitar, tent and all the other essentials. He was accompanied by his friend and ‘Dogs’ collaborator Sean Millar, who was following the same route on public transport. The pair stopped to perform in different venues along the route, making their way towards a grand finale at Glastonbury. Nick’s charming documentary about the journey proves a celebration of sustainability in its many forms, while also allowing the filmmaker to thoughtfully reflect on his relationship with his late father. It’s a film that encourages viewers to stay in the saddle and keep pedalling, whatever the weather, traffic or gradient faced.
