Last weekend The Limerick Film Festival was held in that fair city. The short film ‘The Weather Report’ that my brother Paul directed and that I edited screened at the festival and was nominated for 3 awards in the festival’s showpiece short film awards night. I couldn’t make it down on the night but my brothers trip to the city was well worth it. The film picked up 2 awards, best camera for the DP on the project Ivan Marcos and best director for Paul himself. I’m delighted for Paul, this was his first drama project and to see him and it get some recognition so early in its festival life is really something great. Here’s hoping the award and screening are the first of many for the film on its adventures around the world.
