Poster Boys is a heartwarming comedy film directed by Dave Minogue, released in 2017. Set in Ireland, the movie follows the story of Al Clancy (played by Trevor O'Connell), a dysfunctional adult who struggles to handle his job at the local hardware store, his troubled romantic relationship with his ex-girlfriend, and his longing for a better life.
Unexpectedly, Al's sister entrusts him with the responsibility of looking after his nephew, Karl (played by Ryan Minogue-Lee), while she goes on a vacation. Karl is a smart-ass 10-year-old who doesn't get along with many people, but he manages to connect with Al through their shared passion for music and a sense of adventure.
One day, Al's boss tasks him with the last chance of saving his job - putting up flyers all over Ireland for the store's upcoming sale. But with Karl's help, they come up with a plan to turn the boring task into a cross-country journey in Al's mother's old camper van.
As they travel across Ireland, they encounter various obstacles and challenges that test their patience and resilience. They make new friends, visit old acquaintances, and even cause chaos at a music festival.
Eventually, the journey helps Al and Karl bond, learn from each other, and grow up as individuals. They both realize that they needed each other more than they thought to overcome their insecurities and become better versions of themselves.
Poster Boys is a charming and funny film that showcases the beauty of Ireland and the powerful connections that can form between family members, no matter how different they may be.
