Fís Éireann/Screen Ireland is proud to support the Irish Short Reel Series, which returns to CIACLA for a second year; showcasing 21 short films for a brighter 2021. Online screenings will highlight a curated selection of contemporary Irish short films, with thanks to Screen Ireland, MART & Emigrant Support Programme.

CIACLA is a non profit arts organisation that promotes contemporary Irish culture and supports local diverse communities in Los Angeles through a multidisciplinary programme in collaboration with local and international cultural partnerships.

This series of 21 short films range from drama, comedy, documentary, animation, sci-fi and contemporary storytelling; produced by some of Ireland's most exciting filmmakers. As the Irish film industry is currently enjoying a surge in output and success, with many Irish films, cast and crew gaining international recognition and winning major awards, we are delighted to provide a platform to showcase exciting new stories and talent.

The series will run online for 21 days from January 1st to 21st via www.ciacla.com, where viewers can engage with all films and are encouraged to access this great opportunity for a bit of daily escapism and insight into contemporary Ireland and our creative industries.

The series line up includes 11 Screen Ireland-support short films: A Better You, A Different Kind of Day, Bending Glass, Break Us, Maya, The Bird & The Whale, The Grass Ceiling, The Tattoo, The Vasectomy Doctor, The Wiremen, and Wrath.
