Hi folks,
Für alle, die sich für die ´locations´ und die Musik dieses Films interessieren, - und beim Abspann nicht aufgepasst haben - folgende Infos.
Der Film spielt größtenteils in Galway, aber nicht in der Stadt Galway, sondern im gleichnamigen County. Hauptlocation ist das Städtchen Roundstone (bekannt für die Herstellung traditioneller Musikinstrumente,
www.connemara-tourism.org/regions/roundstone.html).
Weiterhin erscheinen natürlich die Aran Islands (
http://www.visitaranislands.com/,
http://www.aran-islands.com/) mit dem bekannten Steinfort Dun Aengus.
