IRELAND ON SUNDAY PRESENTS:
HOTEL DARKLIGHT
When: Sunday, December 13 @ 1.00 pm
Where: Irish Film Institute, Eustace Street, Temple Bar, Dublin
Hotel Darklight is an exciting feat of no-budget cinematic daring created for this year’s Darklight Film Festival, a full length feature film comprising ten short pieces filmed over 6 days in one location. Inspired by Exquisite Corpse, a Victorian parlour game where random words and images are assembled to form a surreal finished product producers Declan Lynch and Alan Keane brought together ten writers and ten directors to tell a series of discrete tales of the paranormal which would all take place in an eerie Smithfield Hotel. The result is an ingenious, collaborative tour de force.
