'Culchies' brave Storm Amy on a tractor as film about The Holyland releases in cinemas - in pictures

Not even a storm could keep the 'culchies' away from Belfast on release day for The UnHolylands.

Set in the infamous student quarter of South Belfast, The UnHolyands follows brothers Michael on a mission to host one last legendary house party before graduation and the responsibilities of adulthood come crashing in.

After premiering at the Belfast Film Festival last year, the comedy film has landed in cinemas across Northern Ireland on Friday, October 3.

The UnHolylands review: New film about the notorious student area is a hilarious escape packed with local laughs

Comedy film about notorious student area The Holyland coming to cinemas across NI next month

A description of the film reads: "When Michael and Scott's strict father discovers their wild plans, he bans any further partying and dispatches his uptight assistant to keep them in line.

"As the brothers scramble to pull off their blowout bash without being caught, chaos, comedy, and unexpected lessons ensue.

"Adding star power to the madness, James Nesbitt appears as a brilliantly exaggerated version of himself, alongside cameos from well-known faces from Northern Ireland culture including singer Nathan Carter and boxer Tyrone McKenna, who bring local colour and humour to this larger than life tale of youth and rebellion."

Despite Storm Amy preparing to cause disruption across the country on Friday evening, one The UnHolylands fan couldn't help celebrating release day with a bottle of Buckfast and a lift on a John Deere.

Filmed on location in Belfast’s iconic student streets, director and actor Paddy Duffy said he wanted to deliver an "authentic and affectionately chaotic portrait" of the shared houses, street parties, and unforgettable nights that have shaped generations of students in The UnHolylands.

Paddy Duffy said: “I wanted to create a film that felt real, raw and ridiculously funny, something that anyone who's lived in or passed through the Holylands could relate to. It’s messy, it’s mad, and it’s full of heart.”
