A hurling fantasia through multi-cultural Ireland. A group of asylum seekers and refugees form a hurling team. HURL charts the human, heroic and hilarious journey as this team overcomes impossible barriers while contesting the Hurling Club Championships.

"A winning performance"
The Irish Times

ideal subject"
The Guardian

saw it."
