moray mair | All about mutantspace | December 5, 2011

I thought I’d post up the winning short film from our Mutant Shorts Film Competition that was held as part of our DIY Arts Festival, The Trash Culture Revue, last week. The film makers in our skills exchange are among the most pro -active people  I have ever come across and  I’m always gobsmacked at the number of entries and quality of films that land on my desk twice a year in the lead up to our festival.. The making of a film is no easy task, it requires time, dedication and above all people to make it happen – it is a true collective art form – and I’m thrilled we get to run this small competition during every Trash Culture Revue.

So thanks to everyone that made films for this Novembers edition of the festival and congratulations to Blake Norton and Irene Kelleher for thier wining short. Here is a little info on the film;      

“Psychosis” Is a drama short adapted from Sarah Kane’s play “4.48 Psychosis.” It was the British Playwright’s last work, and she never saw it performed. The short adaptation, directed by Blake Norton, features Cork actress Irene Kelleher in the role of Kane. Kelleher has spent the last few years on the Irish theatre circuit, and just this month was named the 2011 Mace actor of the year. “Psychosis” was filmed in a home overlooking town above Wellington Road in Cork City
