Irish Cinema in Focus

Our film discussion group meets on 2nd Thursday of every month led by our resident film critic Steve Martin. We look at Ireland’s contribution to the international film industry through the lends of its actors, directors, producers, cinematographers and screenwriters. Films are viewed in the classroom then discussed, often by reference to extracts from other movies.
