Five Irish Films Screening at London Film Festival
Hot from their screenings at the Toronto Film Festival, both CRACKS and A SHINE OF RAINBOWS will screen along with HIS & HERS and two short films THE MILL and IF I SHOULD FALL BEHIND at the 53rd London Film Festival this month.
CRACKS directed by Jordan Scott and starring Eva Green (Casino Royale) will screen as part of the Film on the Square section of the festival while A SHINE OF RAINBOWS directed by Vic Sarin and starring Aidan Quinn (Legends of the Fall) and Connie Nelson (Gladiator) has been selected for the World Cinema section.
Ken Wardrop's feature documentary HIS & HERS which picked up the Best Irish Feature award at the Galway Film Fleadh in July will screen in the Europa programme in the festival.
Two Irish short films have been selected also. THE MILL directed by David Freyne tells the story of a young boy who while camping with his family near a dilapidated mill, awakes to find that he is entirely alone. It has been selected for the Landscape as Character short film programme while Morgan Bushes IF I SHOULD FALL BEHIND has been selected for a programme called The Young. His short film is about a haunted father and distraught mother who cannot deal with a family death, so it is up to their young son to try to change things for the better.
All the films were supported by the Irish Film Board.
