In the streets outside a Belfast nightclub, a veteran doorman navigates the absurdities and chaos of nightlife, observing generations of people caught in repetitive patterns of violence, humour, and survival, while subtle echoes of the Troubles linger in the city’s undercurrents.

This film isn’t just about nightlife, it’s about people. It’s about identity, cycles of violence, and how humanity persists in the most unexpected places. With your support, we aim to bring The Doorman to life with authenticity, grit, and emotional depth.
