Irish film to make US debut
Strength and Honour, the story of an ageing boxer forced back into the ring to pay for his son’s lifesaving operation, will premier at the prestigious Boston Film Festival.
A delighted Rochestown-born Mark Mahon, who wrote the screenplay for the film, confirmed yesterday that he is planning a major celebrity bash for Cork to tie in with its Irish premiere, which he hopes will take place before the end of the year.
