A calculator with square roots causes absolute chaos in 1981 Dublin. Math has never been this petty.
Nuala Ni Bhraonáin, electronics whiz, is a stylish woman about town in Dublin of 1981. She's invented the 'Reilly 9000', the world's first calculator with a square root function. Donnchadh is her flatmate and an egomaniacal Gaeilgóir poet with an unfortunate penchant for plagiarism -- and Rita, one of Nuala's workmates, makes the mistake of getting between Donnchadh and the top prize in Slógadh.
Writing
Dialogue so sharp you'll need stitches. The plagiarism burns are *chef's kiss*.
Production
1981 Dublin recreated with suspiciously specific rage against Slógadh culture.
Acting
Ruth McGill's side-eye could power the Reilly 9000 itself.
