A Pint of Ordinary is Costs Barich's witty, deeply observant family portrait of Ireland vanishing before our eye. Pulling on the wit and wisdom of O'Brien, Joyce, Behan, and Synge, Barich explores how Irish culture has turned into a commodity for export. While Irish pubs in the countryside are shutting at the alarming rate of 1 per day, replicas are being blessed in overseas countries at the same rate. From the famed watering holes of Dublin to small town pubs, Barich presents a colorful array of characters, and partcipates in an unvarnished yet affectionate conversation about what this means to be Irish today.
