IN PICTURES: Lively night at Take a look at LAOIS film launch

‘A Look at Laois’ is the name of a feature length documentary about Laois which was launched in the run up to Christmas in Mountrath.

 

Segments of the documentary were shown at the launch on December 1 with background music performed by members of Laois Comhaltas.

A Look at Laois was initiated by Laois Comhaltas with funding from Laois Partnership. The documentary is written, produced and directed by Laois man PJ Phelan.

Footage from all four corners of Laois is captured in the documentary. The O’Moores and the Fitzpatricks are featured, being major figures who distinguished themselves during the creation of the Queen’s County, which today we now call Laois.

“Natives of Laois worldwide will be particularly interested in footage captured in all seasons,” said the producer PJ Phelan.

That's the last of the pictures taken at the film launch in BloomHQ. TO SEE MORE PICTURES FEATURED IN THE LEINSTER EXPRESS /LAOIS LIVE tap HERE.
