Beara, Events, Film

Lost in Schull

Monday 25/05/2015 Richie

Lost in Schull with Caillte a short film set on the Beara Peninsula West Cork Ireland. This film was accepted into the Fastnet Short Film Festival for 2015. Our first attempt at Film competition. There were lots of great films there from all over the world, some on big budgets, but many like ours were shot on a Zero Euro Production…

We had the pleasure of going for two days of the festival and met some interesting people. It was also great to be able to judge your own level of filming by comparing with other films that we saw. I guess we saw about thirty of all the films there.

Watch our Short Film “Caillte”

Innocent bystanders… enjoying a few drinks between films

Pauline and the Mayor etc

Pauline did a great job along with the other members of the team, thanks. Well we did not win the event but we had a great time and will almost certainly try and go one better for next year. So Lost in Schull because we did not win and Caillte means Lost in Irish…
