Detours en Cinecourt
My short film ‘Uisce Beatha’ will screen at the ‘Detours en Cinecourt’ festival in Saint-Geniès-Bellevue, Toulouse, France in June.
The film was subtitled into French for the purposes of the festival by Anne Reidy.
The festival runs from the 10-15 of June, and more information can be found on the festival website.
Here are some photos taken at the 2013 Lewiston-Auburn Film Festival, held in Maine, USA.
Three of my short films were screened, and I took part in two Q&As.
Huge thanks to everyone at the festival!

It was filmed in October 2012, in various locations around Cork and produced with the kind financial assistance of the Cork City Council Arts Department.
The film stars, among others, Frank Prendergast, James Browne, Charlie Ruxton and Rupert Stutchbury. We are currently submitting it to various festivals and will have a premiere screening of it in Cork in April.
