What's Next?

We’ve almost had two wonderful years since we’ve started the film festival circuit. It was a wonderful journey full of amazing screenings, meaningful discussions and just terrific audiences. We’ve met so many exceptional people and heard their stories and family history. We loved all of it!

We are grateful for all the experiences we got to share through Burren Girl. Our adventure continues, but in a slightly different way! We are pleased to announce that our documentary, thanks to our wonderful distributor Cow Lamp Films, will be streaming on a variety of platforms. You can now rent or buy Burren Girl on Amazon Prime Video and also watch it on Tubi. More streaming announcements coming soon!

If you wish to instead own a Burren Girl DVD or gift it to someone. You have that option too! But maybe you want to organise a private screening of Burren Girl accompanied by a discussion with the director? Get in touch! We’d love to hear from you!

Screening in the Galway Gaeltacht (Irish speaking region)!

Our time in Ireland has been amazing and we are so grateful! Last Friday, May 13, we had the chance to screen Burren Girl at Muintearas Community Center in South Connemara in the Galway Gaeltacht (Irish speaking region). We had a great discussion after - with an historian, an expert on ancient legal texts and a poet. The conversation flowed wide and deep. What an amazing community! Thank you so much for having us!

If you missed seeing Burren Girl in person, we have a screening on May 20 at Achill Island Film Festival and director Rita Davern will be there! All the Burren Girl DVD is available for purchase on our website (US, Ireland and UK delivery only, for other countries contact us directly.)

EVENT: Irish Genealogical society International presents Burren Girl Documentary: Behind the Scenes

Burren Girl Documentary: Behind the Scenes with filmmaker Rita Davern
Saturday, June 12 10:30am – 12:00pm (CDT) - a virtual presentation

Probably all of us have paper genealogy files. Some may have the information stored in a database. A few may have written a story or perhaps even compiled a book on your family tree. Rita Davern makes us all look like slackers. She made a movie of her forty-year journey to find the place and people she comes from in County Clare. And, to top that feat off, her resulting film The Burren Girl was selected as an entry in the Spring Grove International Film Festival, the Beloit International Film Festival and the Twin Cities Film Festival where it won the Audience Award in the Non-Fiction Category!

This webinar is FREE. However, you do need to register. Do so soon as space is limited to the first 250 registrants. For more details and to register, click HERE.
