Written and directed by Neil Jordan – and shot against the Irish coast’s magical backdrop by cinematographer Christopher Doyle – Ondine is a story of love, hope and the unwavering belief in the impossible.
Ondine is a lyrical modern fairy tale that tells the story of Syracuse (Colin Farrell), an Irish fisherman whose life is transformed when he catches a beautiful and mysterious woman (Alicja Bachleda) in his nets. His daughter Annie (Alison Barry) comes to believe that the woman is a magical creature, while Syracuse falls helplessly in love. However, like all fairy tales, enchantment and darkness go hand in hand.
