Free screening of acclaimed Limerick film this weekend
A FREE screening of a critically-acclaimed documentary will take place in Limerick this weekend.
Described as a “catalyst for change,” Out of Place is a documentary about the role music plays in building community, exploring the tensions that emerge when musicians struggle to carve out a space for themselves in their city - in this case, in Limerick city.
Presented by Féile na Gréine at the Belltable on August 20, the screening will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers.
Through an intimate portrayal of a local music scene, Out of Place captures the incredible diversity of cultural activity happening in the Treaty City.
Exploring music made at a local level, the film follows a variety of musicians as they try to navigate their changing city, in an attempt to find places to create, perform and connect with others.
This proves difficult as space provided for culture is always shrinking, turning the act of music-making into an act of defiance.
The film by Féile na Gréine and directed by Graham Patterson features performances from Denise Chaila, God Knows, Hey Rusty, His Father's Voice, MuRli and Post Punk Podge & the Technohippies.
Filmed with a DIY spirit, Out of Place is both a celebration of music as a form of individual and collective expression.
Last November, the film was nominated for Best Documentary at the Irish Film Festival in London.
The documentary also hit Stateside for its US premiere back in June.
