Kingerlee
Colm Hogan, Martina Levitina
Ireland | 2011 | 48mins | DCP | Colour
Kingerlee is an experimental documentary exploring the inner world of the West Cork artist, John Kingerlee, and the nature of the creative process. It is a visual and aural exploration of the internal forces and processes – memories, feelings, thoughts and spiritual experiences – as well as the outer forces, such as the visual power of the landscape, natural sounds and textures, that shape the human experience and affect the artist’s inner world. The documentary was shot at John’s home on the Beara Peninsula and in Morocco.

The Writing In The Sky
Garry Keane
Ireland | 2010 | 53mins | Beta| Colour
This is the story of a writer and his place, of his horse, his dog and three thousand migrating barnacle geese. The writer is Dermot Healy, an outstanding poet, playwright, novelist and autobiographer who is, according to Roddy Doyle, Ireland’s greatest writer. The place is Ballyconnell, on the wild coast of Sligo, the dog is Tiny, the horse is Lucky, and the geese arrive from Greenland around October each year for a six-month stay. Filmed over those six months, The Writing in the Sky is the portrait of both an artist and of a magnificent landscape and its inhabitants, human and animal.
