Cork International Film Festival is delighted to partner with UCC to present the premiere screening of Peggy, by the 2024 Lord Puttnam Scholars.
Following the screening there will be a panel discussion with the Scholars and David Puttnam.
Peggy
When her eldest son drops in for tea and begins to bicker with his brother, Peggy’s patience is put to the test. As the pains of the past and filial jealousies bubble to the surface between Cormac and Joe, Peggy decides there is no point in crying over spilt milk and applies an old saying to her own life: actions speak louder than words…
Refreshments will be served following the panel.
📅 Wednesday, April 9th at 6:30pm
📍 Aula Maxima, UCC
Free but ticketed
In partnership with University College Cork.
