WATCH: Burren Girl Q&A at Beloit IFF Year 'Round Film Series

Last month, we had the pleasure of screening as part of Beloit IFF Year ‘Round Film Program, a weekly independent film series, featuring encore presentations of the festival’s finest films, as well as a lineup of the hottest new film submissions possibly destined to screen at the next BIFF in February 2021 (more news on that soon!).

Director Rita Davern and Burren Girl writer and editor, Miles Painter, talked with Greg Gerard, the executive director of Beloit International Film Festival about our documentary and how it came to be. Take a look at Q&A down bellow:
