Glasgow Short Film Festival Focus on Ireland 1

Kicking against the grain somewhat, Irish short film has increasingly found success on the worldwide stage, with proportionally high numbers being nominated for Academy awards and other barometers of success. This first programme includes some modern greats. Undressing My Mother by Ken Wardrop was an early forerunner of a more personal approach in Irish filmmaking and notably two Northern Irish films, Even Gods by Phil Harrison and A Removals Job by Nicholas Keogh, round out a broad view of some of the recent success stories.
