Free: A Bunch of Amateurs (12A) + Introduction, Short Film and Q&A

Senior Community Screenings

A Bunch of Amatuers

Growing old amid flickering memories, one of the oldest amateur film clubs in the world is teetering on the brink of survival.

Desperately clinging to their dreams, and to each other, this hilarious and moving portrait of artistic folly speaks to the delusional escapist dreamer in us all.

Women Over Fifty Film Festival Director Nuala O’Sullivan will join us to introduce Split and share her journey setting up the festival. Nuala will be joined by Split director, Clare Holman (Lewis, Mores, Sherwood, The Little Drummer Girl) and Split write and lead actor, Judy Flynn (Dinnerladies, The Brittas Empire, Call the Midwife) after the main feature for a Q&A.
