Irish Film Institute -DUBLIN: THE MOVIE

DUBLIN: THE MOVIE

Director:

IRELAND • 2008 • COLOUR • DIGITAL BETACAM • 48 MIN


In a rare and potentially fatal feat of cinematic daring, Dublin: The Movie was shot entirely between 12.01am to 11.59pm on Thursday June 26th 2008.
At the invitation of the Darklight Film Festival, thirty filmmaking teams and individuals came together to make the series of short pieces that combine to make this film. Director Lenny Abrahamson (Garage, Adam & Paul) ‘curated’ the film and remixed the edit in four days. This audacious cinematic collage offers both a unique snapshot of a single day in the life of Dublin and a vivid example of a bold guerrilla filmmaking model.

Ireland on Sunday is pleased to invite ‘curator’ Lenny Abrahamson and participating filmmakers to join us in a post-screening Q&A.
