‘Redemption’ is set the Irish village of Kilthumper. If they lose their next match, Kiltumper’s football team will drop to Intermediate status. The club’s two best young players, the Boland brothers, are on the point of leaving for Australia, their full forward is possibly the worst footballer in Ireland, and the members are at each other’s throats.
However, the community pulls together before the final game of the season.
