Éamon Little is a film-maker, radio documentary maker and screenwriter. A long-time collaborator with director Pat Collins, he was invited by Collins to adapt Rising Sun with him. The two had worked together back in 2005 on the documentary John McGahern – A Private World.
Flann O’Brien is the focus of this year’s weekend, celebrating the surreal writing of legendary Irish writer with a glimpse at the largely untapped cinematic potential of his writing. The programme also looks at ways that theatre can reach a potentially wider audience in the hands of a film director and, with the launch of the SLR Producers’ Network, will explore the potential of a new wave of filmmakers to build on the film, animation and tv work already being produced in the region.
