Báite is a stylish Irish-language murder mystery set in rural Ireland during summer 1975.

When a woman’s body is discovered in a lake, young pub owner Peggy Casey wants the issue buried to protect her struggling business — but Dublin detective Frank Ryan suspects something far darker.

The film blends melodramatic flair with vivid, technicolour visuals, offering a brighter take on Irish crime drama while delivering solid performances from Eleanor O’Brien and Moe Dunford. Though it doesn’t reinvent the genre,

Báite is an engaging, atmospheric tale that keeps viewers guessing.
