'A Mother´s Love´s A Blessing' is a first television drama for both its writer and director. This pitch black comedy charts a son´s struggle to free himself from his domineering mother. Their strange relationship forms the dark centre of this provocative drama as Pat McNab finds the courage to act on his murderous thoughts. With a strongly enriched visual style that employs a kind of magic realism, the drama explores the razor-thin line between madness and sanity with hilarious and disturbing nods in the direction of Freud and Hitchcock.
