Jesco White’s daddy teaches his tearaway son the art of Mountain Dancing – a frenzied version of tap dancing set to wild country banjo music. Years later following his father’s murder, Jesco dances his way from bar to bar, until the need to avenge his fathers death grows too strong to handle.

Screened at both The Edinburgh International Film Festival 2009 and the Sundance Festival 2009, this is the debut feature film from acclaimed television documentary and advertising film maker Dominic Murphy.
