Extra Ordinary

Extra Ordinary is a supernatural comedy set in rural Ireland. Rose Dooley is a driving instructor with a hereditary gift for speaking to the dead, a talent she has tried to leave behind since her father died during a childhood ritual. She spends her days turning down requests to clear spirits out of rubbish bins and other unlikely places. Her resolve weakens when Martin, a widower whose late wife will not stop pestering him, asks for help. At the same time, a washed-up rock star named Christian Winter makes a deal with dark forces to revive his career, and the ritual he plans requires a local teenage girl. Her father turns to Rose, who must overcome her fear of her own abilities if she is to save the girl.

The film was directed by Mike Ahern and Enda Loughman, who also wrote the screenplay, and produced by Mary McCarthy, Katie Holly and Ailish Bracken. It is a Belgian, Irish and American co-production running 94 minutes. Maeve Higgins plays Rose, with Barry Ward as Martin, Will Forte as Christian Winter, Claudia O'Doherty as Claudia Winter, Jamie Beamish as Brian Welsh and Terri Chandler as Sailor Dooley.
