Multiple award winning drama series written by Eugene O'Brien, produced by David Collins, Ed Guiney and Peter Norris, and directed by Declan Recks and Charlie McCarthy. Pure Mule is set in modern rural Ireland, in a midlands market town. Each of the six episodes of the original series (which first aired on RTE in 2005) focuses in on one particular character from Friday evening to Monday morning.
After a 4 year stay in London, Jen has come home to bury her mother. Her boyfriend of two years, Tom, accompanies her home. Her former flame, Scobie, meanwhile is struggling with what to do in a place that has no jobs--and no place for him now that Jen has moved on. Both Scobie and Jen are at a crossroads and during the weekend they will make some pivotal choices that will determine their futures.
