As we begin to see the light at the end of the tunnel, how have you all been coping with the Lockdown?

We’re thrilled to partner with Rathmullan Film Festival for #LockdownRathmullan – a film project that will capture how the community in Rathmullan Donegal experienced this difficult, but historically important, period and leave our story for future generations.

 

Films will be showcased in Rathmullan at a special event (when it is safe again).

 

Here’s what Rathmullan Film Festival said:

 

Make a short film (up to 2mins) using your phone, tablet or whatever is easiest, and submit it to our email rathmullanfilmfest@gmail.com using wetransfer.com

The plan is to create an archive, showcase videos here on Facebook and hold an event when it is safe to do so.

We’d love to see EVERYONE in our village, young and senior, making films! We all have a story to tell!
