Adapted by Booker Prize-winning author Roddy Doyle from his 1987 novel of the same name, The Commitments tells the story of an unlikely band of kids trying to hit the music big time in 1980’s Dublin, but personal relationships and the pitfalls of fame get in the way, before they find reconciliation in their music.
