Fresh Films Ireland is once again bringing youthful creativity and cinematic innovation to the forefront with the 2024 edition of its International Film Festival.
Established in 1997, Fresh Film has evolved from its origins as part of the Limerick Film Festival into a year-round celebration of young filmmakers.
Fresh Films Ireland is poised to captivate audiences yet again with the 2024 edition of its International Film Festival. This event heralds the innovation and artistry of young filmmakers from around the globe.
This year's festival is enriched by the participation of one of Leitrim's own, 17-year-old Olivia Louise Curto. Her film 'Freequencies' explores the life of Oliver, a young boy with electromagnetic hypersensitivity, highlighting the impacts of our digital world and the human need for connection.
With anticipation running high, the results of this year's competition will culminate in a gala awards ceremony, broadcast live for all to partake in the celebration of young talent.
Audiences across Ireland are invited to tune in on April 29, from 7-9 pm on RTE2, to witness the revelation of this year's 'Ireland's Young Filmmaker of the Year'.
Whether you're a film aficionado, an industry professional, or simply someone who appreciates the creativity of the younger generation, this festival promises both inspiration and insight into the future of cinema.
