More new Irish shorts on the IFB Media Hub
Every year, Irish filmmakers produce innovative, award-winning shorts under the IFB’s Frameworks, Signatures, Gearrscannáin and Reality Bites schemes. After the films have finished their festival screenings, we upload them to the Short Film Channel of our Media Hub for everyone to enjoy.
We are delighted to announce that a new selection of short films will be available to watch on the Short Film Channel in the coming weeks. Last week, we added Frameworks short Blinky™, written and directed by Academy Award nominee Ruairi Robinson and produced by Nick Ryan; and the multi-award winning Reality Bites short Blue Rinse, written and directed by Matt Leigh and produced by Nodlag Houlihan.
And now, you can watch two more fantastic short films:
Crossing Salween: A young girl must make the journey through the horrors of the Burmese jungle to the Salween River and the safety of Thailand beyond. Directed by Brian O'Malley and produced by Gary Moore for Red Rage Films, this Signatures short screened at film festivals around the world, including the Berlinale in 2011.
Loft: When a grumpy old man decides to trick the boy next door his joke backfires in an extraordinary fashion. This Short Cuts film was written and directed by Gareth Chambers and produced by Steven Davenport for Underground Films.
Lots more exciting new shorts to come in the next few weeks! And in the meantime, you can watch many other short films and trailers on the Irish Film Board Media Hub.
