Luck of the Irish

When an upwardly mobile African-American couple (Mildred Lanford* and Andre Teamer) want to buy a home in an all-white neighborhood of 1950’s Boston, they pay a struggling Irish family (Chris Rickett and Cora Vanderbroek*) to “ghost-buy” a house on their behalf. Fifty years later, the Irish family wants “their” house back. Moving across two eras, Luck of the Irish explores the controversial legacy of race and class issues and the long held secrets that tie two families and one house together.
