AS THE LIGHT LEAKS IN: Another new short 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. So far, we added Frameworks short Blinky™; the multi-award winning Reality Bites short Blue Rinse; Crossing Salween, a Signatures short; Short Cuts films Loft and Headspace;and Collaboration Horizontale, a Reality Bites documentary short.

And from today, you can also watch the Short Short As the Light Leaks In, written and directed by Shirley Weir and produced by Frank Reid for Stitch Films. This short drama, which was officially selected for the Kerry and Foyle Film Festivals in 2010, is about a little girl who uses a cardboard television set to create her own impression of the world and to escape the turbulent and often violent relationship of her parents. Read more about it here.

Lots more 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.
