Last week the Apollo 11 documentary blasted into cinemas – a celebration of both the courage and scientific brilliance that it took to put the first men on the moon – but this week another documentary puts an alternative lens on the historic moment, revealing the direct link between the....

OK, here we go. The listing for our latest offering at the Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival. Bandit Films/Lucataire- Johnny Gogan's Prisoners of the Moon. Timed to reach audiences on the 50th Anniversary of the moon landings, it's been in production and post for 18 months or more now where Johnny has been shooting all over from Germany to the US and elsewhere, but the recent shoot for the dramatisation of the court scenes in Hazelwood etc brought it altogether. Some really great performances in there from Jim Norton, Cathy Belton, Marty Rea and Alan Devine. It will be broadcast in Ireland and North America.
Music by Steve Wickham. The talented crew included Fionn Rodgers, Niall Flynn, James Dennison Amy O'Hara Michelle Shellz Nic Andréis, Jim King and many more. Oh...cut and post production by yours truly.
The bad news is that it's sold out already.
All the best
Patrick.

The Virgin Media Dublin International Film Festival is Ireland's premier feature film festival taking place from 20 February - 3 March 2019.

OK, prep day done, now off on a demanding five day schedule shooting for a new dramatised TV doc for next year. We can't say much at the moment apart from that it will go out in the North America as well as here. As with most of the docs lately the content might possibly be controversial and on a certain common theme. All the best..
