The Fastnet Film Festival in Schull runs from Wednesday 23rd to Sunday 27th May.
Now in its 10th year, the Festival has proven to be enormously successful in attracting the support of some of the leading talent of the film world, both national and international, while still retaining the democratic feel of a community event, in a village that doesn鈥檛 have a cinema!
Film and Screen Media is delighted to announce that its staff, students and former holders of the UCC/Arts Council Film Artist in Residence scheme will be represented in this year鈥檚 Festival
Friday 25th May @ 2pm: A showcase of short films directed by students on the BA in Film and Screen Media
Saturday 26th May @ 11am: A celebration/roundtable discussion on 鈥淪creenwriting: The Art vs. the Craft鈥�, with Carmel Winters, Gerry Stembridge, Hugh Travers and Barry Monahan (UCC)
