“Granny is the best. While Mary’s home life is ruled by two older brothers, football and ready meals, she shares her grandmother’s rebellious spirit and love of home cooking. But the happy, carefree days in the kitchen with Granny are drawing to a close. ”
„Among the several animated features making a big impression at the Berlin Film Festival this month (Feb 16-26) is A Greyhound of a Girl, which is based on a novel by acclaimed Irish writer Roddy Doyle. Directed by veteran Italian director Enzo D’Alo (Pinocchio, Lucky and Zorba), the film centers on an 11-year-old Dublin girl who shares a pivotal car journey with her mother and her ailing grandmother."
“Directed by Enzo d’Alò, Greyhound of a Girl is an adaptation of Roddy Doyle’s children’s book about a 12-year-old girl and her beloved, joke-cracking grandmother who is nearing the end of her life. In addition to Gleeson and Horgan, the film’s voice talents include Mia O’Connor, Charlene McKenna, and Rosaleen Linehan.”
