Main Page Contact Michelle Gordon; 961.3173 For Immediate Release AASU Irish Studies Club Presents Dancing at LughnasaSavannah, GA—January 31, 2006—Armstrong Atlantic State University's (AASU) Irish Studies Club presents "Dancing at Lughnasa," a film about a young boy growing up in a fatherless home with his unmarried mother, and four spinster aunts in 1930's Ireland. The showing will take place on February 17, in AASU's Gamble hall room 114, at 7 p.m. It is free and open to the public. In the film, the family's lives are interrupted by the arrival of two men—the boy's long-lost father, who is off to Spain to fight the war against Franco, and an elderly uncle who has "come home to die" after a lifetime in America. Although life goes on as before for the boy and five sisters, something will happen that will destroy their peaceful existence as they once knew it. The Irish Studies Club meets periodically for lectures on Irish literature, films, history, and politics. It is open to those in the community interested in Irish culture.
