It is a fun and rewarding experience, take it from me I caught the bug over 5 years ago now and have never looked back.

Watching a film alone can be a deeply emotional experience. Watching a film together the experience is shared and in many ways more meaningful. As a group who watch a film together we now have this shared experience in common. Through this common ground we can develop strong bonds and friendships which may carry us through our lives

Nenagh International Film Weekend 2007

Nenagh International Film Weekend 2008
NIFF_prog.2008.pdf


Nenagh Film Week (as it is now known) began back in 2007. The inspriation for the film event came from an idea of mine to bring Polish Film to Nenagh, where I felt there is an audience for this. I approached the Arts Office of North Tipperary County Council with my idea and was warmly welcomed and encouraged by Martina Finn, the then Arts Officer. We began planning the event in earnest. Unfortunately with the programme chosen and promotional material ready to go to print we lost access to the Polish titles (as they were withdrawn by the embassy over producers copyright concerns). The idea was dead in the water before it even got started.
Anyway, enough of that.
Out of this failed project came Nenagh International Film Weekend. WIth less than two weeks to go to the advertised festival the Arts Officer (Martina Finn) and myself frantically tried to come up with an alternative programme. In the end what came about was a diverse programme of international film from over six countries including, Ireland, Czech Republic, Russia, Hungary, and the USA. Nenagh International Film Weekend was born.
SInce then the event has gone from strength to strength (especially since the involvement of the returning Arts Officer Melanie Scott in 2008 & 2009 and Brendan Maher Manager Nenagh Arts Centre in 2009). Nenagh Film Week, as the name change suggests, is now a week long celebration of film with local filmmakers having their work showcased, youth film-making workshops, screenings and more.
It is hoped that the event can surpass itself in 2010 and become even more established as North Tipperary's premier annual film event. Watch this space (or check out www.Nenagh Film Week.com for more info)

2008 Programme
Nenagh International Film Weekend was established in 2007 by North Tipperary County Council’s Arts Office in association with Nenagh Community Network and Cloughjordan Cineclub to enable people locally to share in each others varying cultural identities through the common language of film.
The 2008 Film Weekend has been programmed by Ken Curran from
Cloughjordan Cineclub and there is something for all with comedy, drama,
action, history, animation, fantasy, family, music, love and more all mixed up in
the diverse programme.
Nenagh International Film Weekend, will present seven feature films from
around the globe (China, India, Ireland, Japan, Poland and Russia) as well as
a selection of local and Irish shorts. We are particularly proud to present two
locally made short films this year and view this event as an ideal platform for
promoting the work of local film-makers.
Themes resonant throughout the films are those of cultural meetings and
personal interactions. Be it the Chinese film crew working in Poland (Extras),
to the Irish-Latvian friendship (Once) to issues of family, identity and migration
of people (Koktebel & Shanghai Dreams). In Garage we see the world from the perspective of the individual, while the Japanese animation in The Cat Returns takes us to the world of fantasy through the eyes of a child. We also have a look at how a religion has its origins in a mixture of history and legend (Asoka).
“ To watch a film alone can be a deeply personal experience. Watching a film together, it is as if the audience have a shared experience. This shared experience we now have in common. Common ground can lead to a greater understanding of each other and a levelling of boundaries or misconceptions whereby cross-cultural friendships can grow”.
Ken Curran, Programme Curator, Nenagh International Film Weekend.

Extras
(Statysci)
Director: Michal Kweicinski, Poland (2007) 115mins, Starring: Kinga Preis, Stanislaw Brundy, Krzysztof Kiersznowski
Language: Polish
Chinese filmmakers decide to shoot a movie in Poland. They perceive Poles as a nation of sad people, so they want to hire them, when they need Europeans with gloomy faces to work as extras. The surprising events on the film set will lead to a revision of stereotypes. People from two different nations will each look at themselves from a distance and as a result, it will bring them together.

A lonely healer named Xenia takes them in and, when the man draws closer to her, the boy continues the journey on his own in search of the sea he has longed to visit. The simple account of the journey is given added strength through the use of unusual subjective viewpoints and an imagery and observation that is genuinely poetic.

Shanghai Dreams
Director: Wang Xiaoshuai China (2005) 123mins GEN
Gao Yuanyuan, Li Bin, Yan Anlian, Wang Xueyang, Qin Hao
Language: Mandarin
Wang Xiaoshuai’s Cannes prizewinner is rooted in firsthand memories. In the late 60s, when China feared attack by the USSR, armament factories and other ‘front line’ industries were relocated from cities on the eastern seaboard to remote inland areas, and idealistic young adults were persuaded to resettle in dirttowns like Guiyang to staff them. Less than 15 years later, many were desperate to move back to the urban sophistication of such cities as Shanghai, disillusioned by life in the sticks and eager to taste the new freedoms of the 80s. The Wu family is a case in point and this is their story.

Once

More words are sung than spoken as John Carney’s disarmingly charming Dublin musical charts the tender relationship that forms between a Grafton Street busker (Glen Hansard) and a Czech pianist (Markéta Irglová). Their chemistry is beautifully expressed when they make sweet music together
