April Reads: "Rita’s film traces her Burren ancestry" - The Clare Herald by rita davern

In preparation for our screening on May 4th in Ireland at Hotel Doolin read this lovely article by Pat Flynn in THE CLARE HERALD about our documentary:

“In 2015, encouraged by her niece Maria, Rita began the film, despite having no previous filmmaking experience. She said: “I started taking film classes to learn things like how to light and shoot an effective interview. Thankfully I met some talented filmmakers willing to teach me,”
from “ Rita’s film Traces her Burren Ancestry” - The Clare Herald


We are incredibly excited to welcome you to our May 4th (8pm) screening at Doolin Hotel! To come back to where our documentary’s journey began ( and what a journey it has been!) is amazing. We can’t wait!

Our screening is FREE with donations welcome for Burrenbeo Trust. Booking is mandatory as seating is limited!
