The W Cinema // 23 Oct // 18:00
Join us for a captivating screening of Western Front Studios' short films at the W Cinema.
Western Front presents an exciting showcase of new short films, including the highly anticipated Remote Strutting, funded by Ardán/RTE and filmed at PortWest HQ in Westport, Co. Mayo. Featuring works selected for Oscar-qualifying festivals like Galway Film Fleadh and Raindance, this program highlights never-before-seen films shot locally with renowned actors, offering a unique and thought-provoking cinematic experience.
This 1.5-hour program promises an enriching experience, followed by a Q&A session with the filmmakers. Additionally, we will be screening the best films of the 2nd annual Western Front Studios and Westival short film competition. The winner will receive €200 to put towards their future filmmaking endeavours.
This event will also include a screening of the debut short film ‘A Painted Man’ from Westival favourite writer-director Dan Colley:
'A street performer arrives in a dreary suburb and discovers an unlikely kinship with a young person.
Inspired by the science-fiction writer Ray Bradbury's own story of how he became a writer, this surreal coming-of-age film blurs the lines between reality and fantasy, past and present.'
